Back to Basics: Quilt Templates & Patterns Explained, Yamin, P, American Quilter's Society
A how-to manual for cutting old-time patchwork patterns with today's accurate templates and quick rotary techniques. All 175 block patterns are made from three basic shapes: the square, the half-square triangle, and the quarter-square triangle. Make different and unique-looking blocks, choosing your own colors and fabrics in light, medium, and dark tonal values. Overlapping skill levels - patterns are grouped by easy, intermediate, and advanced for Nine-Patch, Four-Patch, and Five-Patch blocks. Contains full-sized templates with double-cut points for accuracy. The math has been done for you; just trace, cut, and sew.
Looking for a great way to learn to quilt? Want a book full of patchwork ideas and easy-to-sew patterns? Use three basic shapes to make the same quilts our grandmothers made, but with accurate templates and rotary techniques.
