Adapting quilting patterns to paper opens a whole new range of possibilities, for anything you can cut or tear, and paste or sew. You only need to know a few simple embroidery stitches, using ordinary sewing tools and materials. Several master artists and instructors display their projects, along with descriptions of how they made each one. All 25 projects will ignite your imagination. Inspired by the traditional patchwork quilt, most the pieces consist of squares enhanced with everything from dried leaves to buttons.

Bridget Hoff was influenced by the work of her father who was a goldsmith. Bridget's chosen medium was fibre but she later became interested in paper and started to make wall pieces and jewellery from handmade paper. Bridget is now a full-time artist and is extremely proud that she is self-taught. Her work has been widely exhibited within the U.S.
