Monday Book Club

There are so many new fun books that focus on a more "MODERN"
style of quilting.
This book contains the building blocks to get you quilting.
I loved the short, well written, lessons on HUE, CONTRAST, VALUE & SCALE.
There are 16 projects that combine designer prints & solid fabrics.
You will find Quilts, Pillows, Bags & more.....
If you never buy a book unless you plan to make at least 5 projects
from it.....You will be inspired to make so many more.

The projects contain just enough structure to get you creating,
yet not too technical to keep even a beginner from attempting them.
You will never look at solids in the same way!

I think you will really enjoy this book!

Monday Book Club

WONKY.....seems to be the buzz word in modern quilting.
The Wonky technique is both fun and easy to learn.
Take a traditional block, trim it at a new angle, and
then you have it........a perfectly beautiful yet funky block.

Put a bunch of them together & you have a wonderful
fresh modern twist on a traditional quilt.

Thee "Wonky" technique is very clearly laid out.
The photos and step by step instructions are easy to
follow for even the beginner quilter.

True to it's title, you will only be making 1 block
over and over again for each quilt.

You will also love the charts for Crib-King size.
Great cutting instruction & border options to finish
your quilts to perfection.

I think if you are looking for something fun to try,
You will find inspiration for many new projects
within the pages of this great book!
