Twenty Makes - One-Patch Quilts
SPB93508-P3765
Description
Carolyn Forster, who is an expert quilter, provides the inspiration for
making these simple quilts, using a range of lovely fabrics. A one patch
quilt is essentially a patchwork quilt made from a single repeating
shape. This is the simplest type of quilt you can make, but with
carefully chosen coordinating patterns and colours, the results can be
stunning.
The book contains 20 projects, each using a
different-shaped patch; for example, there is a rectangle, a hexagon, a
square, a triangle, a diamond, a clam shape, an apple core shape and so
on. The quilts range from those based on a random selection of plain and
patterned fabrics, to those that use just two or three
different-coloured plain fabrics stitched together to form an
interesting geometric design. On each project page there is a template
for the basic shape, reproduced at actual size, and some basic
instructions for arranging the shapes and stitching them together,
showing some different ways of making a design using colour and pattern.
Instructions at the start of the book explain how to enlarge the
template if you want to make a larger quilt, and some basic quilting
techniques, plus some guidance on how many shapes are needed to make a
particular size of quilt. This book is a fabulous source of ideas and
inspiration for simple patchwork quilt designs that are quick and
satisfying to make, while also being beautiful.
