Decorate
your home for the holidays with this book of twenty-one colorful
contemporary quilting projects. Open the book and in the center
is an insert containing all the patterns full size so you
don't need a computer/printer/copier in order to begin the
festive fun. The projects are all classed as confident beginner,
which I take to mean somebody au fait with sewing but not
yet a quilter. At the front of the book is a useful guide
to what you need to buy and why, plus some of the techniques
you will be using, a few stitch diagrams and hints on quilting
and finishing. All the projects go well together, and are
in a cheerful modern style. Santas, snowmen, wreaths, presents,
trees and owls adorn wall hangings, table decorations, coasters,
mug mats, tree decorations and more. This is a well laid out
book featuring colored diagrams and easily readable short
steps, large photographs showing the finished items in situ
for each item as well as size, what you need and a cutting
guide. For a book of patterns, this is a surprisingly beginner
friendly book that will show quilting tyros the basics, while
providing a houseful of fun attractive holiday decorations.
