It's books like this that bring quilting up to date.

It takes quilting up to a whole new level.

The book allows you to learn techniques

to be able to make bold graphic quilts

that make better use of your time.

The quilts within the book are quick to cut

and quick to sew together.

There are full instructions in the back of the book

so that even a beginner quilter like me can make them.

The thing I like the most about this book is

the palette suggestions at the beginning

of each design.

Each one has a name and individual colour mix.

I sometimes get nervous picking colours

and this is ideal for me.

It means I can make the quilt to match my decor.

Each pattern is split into sections.

You have all the details you need to cut the fabric.

Then it's onto preparation.

then constructions of the quilt.

There are clear and easy to follow illustrations

to make the piecing easier for each of the designs.

Then it's onto the quilt back and the finishing.

There are quilts that are perfect for adults

and children alike.

Within the instructions at the back of the book

are the pictures of the designs

for the free motion quilting and the straight-line quilting. 

This book really does hold everything you

need to make some amazing designs of quilts.

The designs are magnificent.
