This is an excellent soft cover book written by an accomplished quilting teacher which features 8 easy quilt projects with a focus in color and design! With this hands on guide you will learn:
• Tell your own story - redesign blocks in new sizes, proportions, and settings
• Learn to build themes into your quilts
• Create an artist's series of quilts based on the easy "Century of Progress" block sewn with squares and rectangles
• Go beyond piecing - great tips to enhance design by using pin tucks, machine embroidery, threadwork, and beading
