Twelve Maine lighthouses inspired the quilt block designs in this collection, mostly done in hand applique. The author includes interesting short histories of the lights along with her always lucid, simple directions and diagrams for making the blocks. She also includes a variety of attractive nautical-related quilting patterns for the final stitching, and provides directions for ways to use the quilt blocks on smaller projects as alternatives to combining them into a quilt.
