Summary:
Reflecting the desire of late 20th-century crafters and artists to learn about and take part in the handmade traditions of the past, quilting has recently experienced a revival. This book provides a complete course in this functional craft and features chapters on materials, techniques, colour and design. The projects comprise a series of lessons, each slightly more advanced than the last, that build a vocabulary of techniques for conceiving and executing designs.
