Table of Contents Preface Introduction Fabrics Tools Some Basics The Quilts Triangles Quilts Thousand Pyramids by Annette Austin Rolling Ball by Sara Nephew Meteorite by Sara Nephew Fantasy by Kathy Syring Triangle-halves Sails by Sara Nephew Night Crystal by Janet Blazekovich Diamonds and Long Diamonds Casino by Sarah Newman Dont Tread on Me by Marci Baker Country Road by Susan Porretta Weigner Half-Hexagons Gumball by Sara Nephew Bubbles by Diane Coombs Reflections by Jeanne Rumans The Wave by Deb Haynes Quarter Hexagons Grand Hex by Diane Coombs Streaky by Linda Tellesbo Watercolor Garden by Sara Nephew Watercolor Garden Quick Quilt by Sara Nephew Diamond Path by Joyce Cambron Sparkling Diamond by Jeanne Rumans Fancy Flowers by Pam Cope and Sara Nephew Page Resources About the Authors Review September 2017Any book with two authors is likely to bring about an interesting amalgamation of styles. Sara favours scrap piecing while Marci is all about strip cutting so, between the two of them, there are some great combinations to find here in each of 20 projects featured. A quick flick through the books images made me home-in immediately on the Sails quilt, which was made by Sara and quilted by Pam. Its made up of a full assortment of solids all combining to create sunshine, sky, red sails [and] the colour of mountains. All sounded right up my street! Its made up of triangle halves and gets distinctive appeal from the colour-value placement, which is handily described in the section on Fabrics in one of the opening chapters. The instructions run to three pages and paragraphs are economical rather than overly descriptiv, but there is a bit of cross-referencing to chapters on technique if needed. The idea of this book was to take classic patterns such as Trip Around the World, Grandmothers Flower Garden and Thousand Pyramids and build on the techniques using tools, techniques and myraid of fabric choices that are now available. The authors hope that the readers choice of colour texture and pattern will change a classically based pattern into a new design. Saras talents lie in establishing the bones of the quilt (or underlying structure of the pattern) whilst Marci likes to figure out the best way of crafting the designs - and not necessarily the quickest way, as is the case with charm quilts, which hinge on individual cutting techniques and meditative qualities of the process. This is a grat entry level book for those who are keen to experiment with colour. * Popular Patchwork *September 2017Any book with two authors is likely to bring about an interesting amalgamation of styles.
