Boutis is a beautiful, elaborate style of quilt often done in white
on white, known also as French Provencal. From large quilts and
tapestries to smaller hangings and table decorations, pincushions,
and special treasure pouches, Christiane Vignal has designed 25
gorgeous boutis pieces. Materials and instructions are given for
each piece, as well as a full pattern in the pull-out section.
Basic instructions on how to reproduce a pattern on fabric, how to
work the boutis quilting, and how to finish your pieces is
included. If you know how to sew and love the look of boutis, this
book will teach you all you need to know to give it a try!
Stow your stuff in these colourful zippered Eco Pouches and stay
organised everywhere you go. Pouches are made of recycled plastic
that is tough enough to handle even sharp quilting, sewing, and art
tools. (They are also great for pens, jewellery, cosmetics, coins,
and more!) This set of two pouches features two beautiful quilts by
Christina Cameli. Eco pouches are durable and waterproof.
From veteran author, teacher, and designer Becky Goldsmith comes
this amazingly striking Bullseye quilt with easy-to-use
paper-piecing foundations. Though the result looks complicated, the
quilt comes together easily with Becky's simple, friendly
instructions. Make the stunning Bullseye all on its own, add a
border of Flying Geese, or make nine smaller Bullseye blocks for an
eye-catching quilt. Includes instruction booklet and pattern
sheets.
Streamline your free-motion quilting with this workbook full of
exercises to build your skills. Easy-to-follow, step-by-step
illustrations for each design suite show how to adapt the quilting
design for blocks, borders, sashing and allover quilting. Practice
each design with a pencil on the included practice pages before
stitching by machine, then put your skills to the test on a
gorgeous pieced sampler project. These creative continuous-line
quilting designs can be used on both longarm and domestic machines.
