Quilting for Everyone - by Amy Latta (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Jump into the Colorful World of Modern Quilting

Learn how to quilt the fun and easy way with Amy Latta! Using pre-cut fabrics and other beginner-friendly tips, Amy breaks down the complexities of quilting so you can enjoy every part of the process to bring your unique, handmade quilts to life. Created especially for new quilters, each chapter teaches popular quilting techniques that build on each other as you go.

Take your first quilting steps with sashing, which is simply sewing around a central fabric block. Amy then teaches, step by step, how to make famous quilting designs such as Patchwork, Flying Geese, Pinwheels, and Stars. But the best part of all? While you learn these fun techniques, you'll be stitching up cute quilts and accessories to gift and decorate your home! Some of the beautiful creations waiting inside include:

- Playful Pinwheels Quilt
- Pine Tree Pillow Cover
- Crossbody Cell Phone Bag
- Missouri Star Lap Quilt
- Easy Nine-Patch Tote Bag
- Embellished Denim Jacket

Amy's super simple guides like Binding Basics along with Piecing Tips and Tricks make this a beginner's quilting bible that you'll turn back to time and time again. Plus, Amy's vibrant, whimsical fabric choices, her use of contemporary fabric pre-cut bundles like jelly rolls and stackers, and her emphasis on small, quick-to-finish projects will fill you with inspiration and confidence at the turn of each page. The hardest part will be deciding which project to make next!
