Cyndi Hershey's SUDOKU QUILTS (9781564777317, $14.95) provides four fine patterns which use the game-like presentation to display rows and block columns, each in three-by-three squares of different colors and fabrics. The approach will appeal to quilters beyond sudoku game fans: they provide new options for quilts and substitute colors and fabrics for the game's design patterns. Margaret Rolfe's THE PEACE QUILT (9781564777720, $9.95) and Nancy Mahoney's RED TULIPS (9781564777621, $9.95) both provide patterns for specific single projects: two quilts based on peace and tulip themes. Each includes a backboard of materials listings and each pattern set makes it easy to lay out, cut and assemble a quilt. These are excellent picks for any quilter's collection.
