A collection of more than 40 patterns for animal-themed bed quilts,
rugs, mats, wall hangings and mug rugs all made using jelly roll
pre-cut fabric. Quilters love pre-cut fabric strips because they
are quick and easy to use and the fabrics always coordinate. All of
the projects in this book are constructed from pre-cut fabric
strips that are sub-cut into rectangles and then turned into 60
degree shapes by trimming the corners in a special way and we
include a template for this if you don't have a 60 degree ruler.
All of the techniques are explained with detailed step-by-step
instructions and comprehensive diagrams. This collection features
over 40 patterns for animal themed quilts, rugs and more - perfect
for children's bedrooms and nurseries. As well as the 40 plus
patterns there are instructions for readers to create even more
variations by mixing and matching the different design elements and
motifs, and all of the projects have an ability rating so you can
find your level and build your skills as you go. In addition to the
main animals, in this collection there are designs for motifs
including paw prints and even fish - ideal for pet bowl mats - and
there are instructions for how to mix and match these elements to
make personalised variations. The main projects include crib
quilts, cuddle throw quilts, quilted wall hangings for decoration,
floor rugs, mug rugs and table and pet bowl mats. There are also
instructions for how to make themed banners (bunting) using the
leftover jelly roll strips so for each animal there are a variety
of different projects to to decorate a room. The instructions for
cutting and piecing the fabrics are very comprehensive with
step-by-step instructions and diagrams for fast and accurate
patchwork. As well as the piecing instructions there are general
instructions for how to make a quilt sandwich, quilting techniques
and binding and finishing the projects. Ira explains everything you
need to get great results with a professional finish including how
to add a non-slip backing to rugs and display strips for the wall
hangings so you can hang them without damaging your walls. So in no
time you will be making fun animal jelly roll quilts to brighten up
