Synopsis

Lettering has become a distinctive way for quilters to add meaning to quilt tops, from favourite phrases and song lyrics to inspirational words, political statements, and personal dedications. Sarah Fielke offers a framework for creating text-led quilts that still leaves room for individual expression, whether you are making a gift or an heirloom piece for family.

The book goes beyond a simple set of templates, bringing together six alphabets that support different approaches, including paper-piecing, appliqué and improv. Patterns are supplied in both upper and lower case, with styles ranging from chunky block letters to cursive and more whimsical, improvisationally pieced forms, alongside 12 projects to spark ideas.
