This book will take you through each step of this simple colonial craft, from the illustrated stitches guide to handy hints and tips on fabric preparation and choice of equipment.
Six innovative quilt designs are presented with widely varying themes, including a fenced farmyard for a child's bed and a luxurious queen-sized rose quilt with a matching pillow sham. There are also quilts for cots and bassinettes (easily adapted to become lap quilts) sporting gentle childhood motifs such as lambs, kittens and cuddly teddy bears.
All the designs maintain the pioneering tradition of this craft, working only in shades of cream on calico or other homespun materials.
