Picture Patchwork

15 Charted Patterns for Novelty Quilts

Jo Ann Lepore

Description

Picture Patchwork includes 15 charted patterns, also known as pixel or grid quilting, including a single heart, swan, Christmas tree, potted flower and butterfly pattern. All the designs can be made with the traditional nine-patch block, one of the first and easiest blocks that novice quilters master.

By following the colour and placement charts using nine patches of varying sizes, quilters can take a pixelated approach to create their own unique novelty quilts. Nothing will keep quilters of all skill levels from tackling any of these designs, and they can even sprinkle in some additional block designs within their nine-patch grids. Depending on the fabric a quilter chooses, these charted designs can take on a modern spin or a traditional one.

The author also offers professional advice on choosing tools, fabrics and other materials. Quilters will love this super approachable guide to creating beautiful, pieced quilts.
