Once More Around the Block 3 reviews Judy Hopkins

Fantastic book!
+ a good buy + So many patterns, many I've never seen before
I pull this book out every time I start a new project. It offers great blocks with 5 different size options. That was the sell for me, math is not my thing! I've owned this book for years and I still love it. I have all of my quilting ladies buying it, because they love what I come up with.
