Fabulous Facades - Gloria Loughman

From Gloria Loughman, Fabulous Facades is a paperback quilting book that shows you how to recreate favourite places in fabric using fusible appliqué. Drawing on her simple, easy-to-master technique, Loughman guides you through building vivid scenes inspired by a childhood home, a family caravan, a city skyline, or your own photos and memories. With projects designed to help you assemble characterful compositions, it’s a considered choice for quilters looking to explore graphic, story-led quiltmaking.

Alongside three included projects, the book also references downloadable bonus patterns, giving you further starting points for developing your own designs. Quilters of all levels will appreciate the detailed focus on fabric, colour and elements of design, as well as the distinctive construction approach for graphic quilts that resemble woodblock prints.
