About this book

Make your own patchwork quilt by hand with these 27 creative quilt block patterns and bite-size lessons on quilting for beginners, from a bestselling author and teacher!

Slow stitching and mindful crafting are more popular than ever, and with just a few notions you can peacefully create a stunning 27-block quilt entirely by hand, in your own time and at your own pace. As the quilt is made up of blocks, you can work on your quilt a block at a time, making it more portable so you can patchwork on the go.

This wonderful quilt book includes everything you need to return to the roots of traditional patchworking and quilting:

  • ‘Bitesize’ chronological lessons so you can build your quilting skills as you go, with techniques like hand stitching and big-stitch quilting
  • Templates for creating shaped blocks
  • Detailed guidance on how to cut out your fabrics with and without templates
  • Illustrated instructions on how to construct and bind your quilt at the very end.

With dozens of fresh blocks to make, and useful and inspirational information throughout, this is a beautiful book that will take the mystery out of making hand-stitched quilts and spark your quilting ideas for years to come!

Through one quilt, learn how to patchwork and quilt by hand in this accessible how-to book.
