Patchwork, also known as pieced work, simply involves sewing together cut pieces of material to create a larger design. This book presents Cath Kidston’s new, innovative take on traditional patchwork, which combines established techniques with a more contemporary approach. Mixing her own distinctive prints with vintage fabrics, she has designed 30 original and irresistible projects including not just the pieced quilts that you might expect, but also numerous accessories and home furnishings: bags, cushions, pillowcases, a dog bed, and even a toddler’s toy ball. Many of the projects in this guide can be made out of the scraps and leftovers that crafters accumulate, thereby putting all those odds and ends to perfect use. There is a wide range of techniques—from simple machine piecing to more complex patchwork—which makes this is a wonderful book not only for beginners but also for advanced sewers who want to tackle more challenging patch projects. To get you started, the book includes pieces of seven different printed fabrics and instructions to create either a calico bag or a cushion. Each project is shown in detail with color photographs, clearly written instructions, and explanatory diagrams.
