Synopsis

Designed to remove the need for scaling up blocks, tracing patterns, or mounting designs onto sandpaper or cardboard, this volume centres on reusable templates that simplify accurate cutting and piecing. Using four easy-to-use templates, needleworkers can make 27 well-known patchwork patterns, working by hand or with a sewing machine.

The blocks are chosen for their relative simplicity while still offering satisfying variety, and the book shows how to combine them into sample quilts or repeat one motif for bold, optical effects. With 59 illustrations and full instructions covering template use, material selection, cutting and sewing, it offers clear support for successful quilt-making for both beginners and more experienced quilters.
