Improv Handbook for Modern Quilters – Softcover
$27.50
6 in stock
Sherri Lynn Wood presents a flexible approach to quilting that breaks free of old paradigms. Instead of traditional instructions, she presents 10 frameworks (or scores) that create a guiding, but not limiting, structure. To help quilters gain confidence, Wood also offers detailed lessons for stitching techniques key to improvisation, design and spontaneity exercises, and lessons on color. Every quilt made from one of Wood’s scores will have common threads, but each one will look different because it reflects the maker’s unique interpretation. Featured throughout the book are Wood’s own quilts and a gallery of contributor works chosen from among the hundreds submitted when she invited volunteers to test her scores during the making of this groundbreaking work.

STOP tossing those selvages and start SAVING them! Once upon a time, we as quilters would cut off and throw away the selvage pieces from the fabric before we started our projects. After all, we didn’t want that thicker, boring fabric to disturb the pretty piecework. But those days are gone! Sandy Thompson has written the perfect book to turn those otherwise neglected edge pieces into fast, fun, and totally addicting projects! Save the Selvages gives you the instruction and inspiration to see those edges in a totally different light! Now you can upcycle those marvelous selvages into remarkable new projects.Fast and Fun Projects! Sandy has designed this book so that all the projects start with the same technique: complete your 8 1/2″ Foundation (s). Then flip to your favorite project and get going! Since most of the projects use the same starting pieces, you can choose to make your Foundations as you need them or create a big stash of Foundations to pull from when you feel the need to create.
Great for All Sewers! This great book is perfect for beginner, intermediate, and advanced quilters. If you like to sew, you’ll like these projects! Keep some for yourself, give others away as gifts. Whatever you do, no two projects will be exactly the same!
