Description
Following the highly successful formula of previous books, such as Quick Quilts and The Weekend Quilter, here is an entirely new collection of patchwork quilts from a team of experienced quiltmakers.
Divided into three sections, the quilts show fantastic colour combinations, all of which will add sparkle to the home. In the first section this is achieved with colourways in pastel fabrics, the second contains quilts with strong, bold colours and the final section brings together bright fabrics and patterns. The techniques cover patchwork and applique, strip piecing, hand tying and machine quilting.
Each design comes with full instructions backed up by close-up photographs and diagrams. Shortcuts, such as rotary cutting and chain piecing are used throughout. The quilts range from wallhangings to throws to bedcovers: a stunning new collection to be made quickly and enjoyed for a long time to come.

Person
Ten established quiltmakers have been specially commissioned to design the projects. Each has brought her own enthusiasm and expertise to the quilts, whether it is a talent for fabric combination, a love of applique or a development of classic bloack patterns. All are designed to be fresh and bright.
