Choose from ten all-new designs and follow the clear, step-by-step illustrated instructions by this bestselling author to create beautiful complex looking quilts and achieve great results, right down to those narrow little points. The kaleidoscope block is a firm favourite and fun to play with, and when multiple blocks are set side by side they form wonderful secondary designs. Plus when combined with paper-piecing techniques, experienced quilters may pick one of the more complex designs such as Raspberry Truffle on page 72. All the projects at every level include step-by-step cutting and stitching instructions, as well as full-sized patterns, to make constructing the quilts a breeze and a wonderful creative outlet and a joy to share with everyone. The first design is entitled Shadow Play, an orange-ish yellow print, adding purple and green and black to create alternating light and dark blocks creating an interplay of shadows that move across this lap-sized quilt of form circles, waves and elongated Xs. A diamond border which is easier to piece than it looks adds a dramatic finish. A rich palette of chocolate, coffee and cream-coloured batiks mixed with a shot of rust and green prints create a delicious visual sensation with a simple border for the Mocha Latte quilt, finished size 52½" x 65½". Each sparkling pattern features eight shapes that come together to form a single, wonderfully unique block. 80 page large softback, colour.
