Designed by teachers and practitioners at the leading edge of today's craft revival, the projects are both functional and fashionable and include tips on how to create beyond the book, developing individual, unique designs. This inspiring book will give readers the skill and confidence to express their passion for pattern through the age- old crafts of patching and quilting.
