literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.

composition. The chapters of Line|Outline will guide quilters in an
exploration of the beauty of the line beginning with pure lines,

larger projects and one small project. Both solid and print fabrics
will be used.
