Pretty Patchwork Quilts Amazing!
25. März 2012
Format:Taschenbuch
I am in love with Cyndi Walkers newest book!
Cyndi invites you to combine fabrics you have on hand with some new fabrics and make some spectacular quilts!
I want to make every quilt in this book.
There are twelve patterns, some with beautiful applique designs that you can do by hand or machine.
I am a loyal follower of Cyndi, I like just about everything she does. But this book has to be my favorite.
The step by step color illustrations are excellent.
And along with some Quiltmaking basics included in the book, even a beginner can sew these patterns.
I've already bookmarked my favorites in the book, and can't wait to get started.

Beautiful, fun, and worth all the exclamation marks!
27. März 2012
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
By using sparely elegant applique, fantastic color choices, and lively settings, Cyndi Walker gives new life to traditional quilt blocks in her latest book Pretty Patchwork Quilts. Her "Granny Squares" quilt takes a simple nine-patch, dresses it up with a floral border, and bejewels each corner of the block with ruby red mini-snowballs. Sublimely soft colors such as peach, pear, butter, and teal are paired with cheerful gingham checks to make a standard spool block become extraordinary in "Tilted Spools".
The hands-down knock-out of this array (but ask me again tomorrow) has got to be "Moon Flowers", a rich medley of star blocks in 3 different sizes and configurations. Its subtle applique is revealed as stems for the outer stars, and the red floral, tans, and aqua fabrics are just divine. The design on the cover is called "Robin's Roost"; its crimson four-patches, lime hourglasses, and snazzy saw tooth border just chirp "It's spring - get quilting!!"
Every design is nicely balanced in both color and structure. All projects can easily be done on a regular domestic-arm machine; the smallest two are 44.5 inches square and the largest two are 56.5 x 72.5 inches and 64.5 inches square . Most of the photographs display exceptional all-over quilting designs that I am just itching to practice.
If you've had experience with quilting short-cuts, you might be able to make faster work of many of Walker's instructions. For instance, there are oodles of Flying Geese and Hour Glass units that can be speed-pieced. Walker uses freezer paper for the applique, and you might also want to invest in a set of metal bias bar to make the stems. Her favorite brand is from The Celtic Design Company, not found at this time on Amazon, but if you Google the company name you will find many sources. This optional extra is the only notion you might have to invest in.
Note: I am trying not to use exclamation marks in reviews anymore - they are just too jarring and over the top. But books like Cyndi Walker's make it impossible. (!)
