Picture Patchwork - Jo Ann Lepore

From Fox Chapel, Picture Patchwork by Jo Ann Lepore is a paperback quilting book that brings a fresh, chart-led approach to the traditional nine-patch block. With 15 charted patterns for novelty quilts, it guides you through creating picture-style designs by following colour and placement charts and working with nine patches in varying sizes for a pixelated effect.

Designed to suit quilters of all skill levels, the book includes charted motifs such as a heart, swan, Christmas tree, potted flower and butterfly, alongside additional designs. It also works as a technique guide, offering how-to instruction for a new approach to nine-patch quilt block design, strip piecing and more. Along the way, Jo Ann Lepore shares professional advice on choosing tools, fabrics and other materials, helping you tailor each project to a modern or traditional look depending on your fabric choices.
