karenplatt.co.uk: Patricia is the founder and editor-in-chief of Quilting Arts Magazine and Cloth Paper Scissors in the USA. In this exciting book you can learn the art of quilting. Here you will find inspiration for creating your own art quilts. Each technique is explored from embellishment, mixed media, surface design, stitch ideas, putting your quilt together and more. My favourite sections are the ones on using velvet and the very effective technique of Discharge. The book encourages readers to explore, design and produce their own quilt. The techniques will encourage beginners, the ideas will inspire experienced quiltmakers. Discover how other artists begin to quilt, follow the trail of their imagination. Learn the basic principles including three ways to assemble a quilt. This book is loaded with professional know-how and tips from some of the best in the quilting business. It is a mine of information and inspiration. If you have ever been lured by the bolts of fabric in a shop, the many colours and patterns calling to you, this is the book for you to create a fabulous work of art of your very own. Only one English supplier is given.
