From the UK-based best-selling modern quilting magazine comes this volume of quilt patterns, from modern to more traditional, all made from a collection of fat quarters and a background fabric. Fat quarters—every quilter has them—are purchased, traded, and won at quilt events. The patterns are from nine different designers. A variety of techniques are used, such as rotary cutting and chain piecing, template cutting, and foundation paper piecing. Quilters of all skill levels will find something suited to their ability or a challenge to expand their range. Thorough instructions are supplemented by clear illustrations. Templates and foundations for paper piecing must be downloaded, which seems like an inconvenience. Quilts range from wall hanging/table toppers to bed size, and a variety of smaller projects are made from leftovers.
VERDICT Recommended for public libraries that serve a strong, active quilting community.
