Cinnamon Inspirations by Marianne Byrne-Goarin

Cinnamon Inspirations : Edition bilingue français-anglais
This great quilting book is all about country style and folk art designs for quilting and appliqué. In this book Marianne the author uses a lot of woolfelt for her design and quilting projects. As logical, if you prefer to use cotton or other type of fabric that will be good aswell, but the result might not be the same as in the book is shown by Marianne Byrne-Goarin.

I personally find that sometimes the felt loses the shape when is washed, maybe the woolfelt is a better quality than the ones I’ve used. I love the designs and the ideas and colours, but because I have two small kids I will use cotton fabrics instead. I hate to see my lovely work ruined if it needs to be washed.

Continuing with this book, it has some lovely ideas for table runners with hand quilted shapes, pillows and cushions, quilts with quilted flowers, sunflowers, bags, hearts and posies, and a selection of autumn style designs with lovely leaves and colors. In general is a great book with some lovely ideas, my favorite one is the bird house thread keep, really sweet.  I am planning on doing it next, as soon as I finish it I will post a photo of the finished thing with my own ideas on how to do it in the section of this website: my projects. Overall I strongly recommend you to buy this wonderful book. Have fun!
