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.
In quilts, as in life, few things are more important than color.
Color evokes a mood, color sets a contrast, color is the spark that
can make the everyday - extraordinary. Color Continuum is an
exploration of how different approaches to creating a unique
palette for a quilt can imbue it with emotion or suggest anything
from an everyday scene to a classic painting. In no 1.
monochromatic, choose between five modern, geometric patterns which
can each take a single central hue and build a rich story using
subtle shades and bold shapes. Whether you're trying to coordinate
with an existing color scheme or capture a particular atmosphere,
the purity of a monochromatic approach can produce surprisingly
lush results. These designs, inspired by elements of everyday life,
each feature full-color illustrations, full-sized templates, and
detailed step-by-step instructions. Give it a try, and brighten
your day - with a single color.
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.
