Nautical Quilts: 12 Stitched and Quilted Projects Celebrating the Sea from Lynette Anderson is the type of craft book I like with projects from large to small.
I initially wanted to look at this book as a potential gift for a friend. Turns out she will be getting a copy. I don't do big projects, I have neither the skills nor the desire to tackle them, which is why I particularly like this book. The small projects are the kind I can imagine giving to friends and family as gifts. Whether I have lived in a coastal area or inland, there are almost always at least a few friends who have some sort of nautical decorating some place in their home. I know three people off the top of my head where I live that have nautical themed guest bathrooms, and a couple of these projects would be ideal for them.
I found the explanations and instructions to be good and straightforward so even a novice like myself could follow them. A friend of mine who does more of this kind of thing liked that they seemed to be open to modification by those with more skill and experience.
I would recommend this to anyone who likes to do quilting and/or stitching projects. These are ideal for oneself or as gifts, the same can be said of the book itself.
