Diane said – “This pattern was great for working on a project that was easy and quick. I made a twin size from 40 fat quarters. I could only get 2 squares from each fat quarter. The remainder of the fat quarter was used for the quilt backing. Highly recommend for the beginner quilter or someone who wants a fast project.”

Victoria M. said – “I had a fat quarter bundle that had been sitting around waiting for the right pattern, and Talk of the Town was perfect. The directions (as with all of Amy’s patterns) were easy to follow, and now I have a beautiful lap quilt just waiting for some soft minky, a little quilting, and its future as a tv watching/nap taking beauty!”
