Informative and inspirational

Posted by tracyshephard.wordpress.com on Jul 13th 2021

I love making quilts.. but I have never made a Log Cabin quilt. This book talks about the history of such quilts and also teaches us how to construct and plan a beautiful Artful Quilt. This glossy, informative and inspirational book is a joy and Katie has been making them for over 30 years, so I guess what she doesn’t know isn’t that important. Katie use of fabric is clever and she makes some amazing quilts from photographs. She illustrates certain techniques and I learned a lot from her methods.

The most wonderful ideas

Posted by yarnsandfabrics.co.uk on Jul 13th 2021

Katie is one of my favourite quilt authors. She has the most wonderful ideas. If you are thinking traditional log cabin quilts, think again. This book takes you from inspiration to a modern interpretation of log cabin quilts. Make free-form blocks from any image. Contents include history, inspiration, grids, fabrics, cutting, construction, quilting and finishing plus a gallery. There are lots of ideas for composition. The book has easy to follow instructions and is illustrated throughout with fabulous images of work. A simple design idea that works and will transform your quilting. It doesn’t, however make me think of log cabin quilts, but very very artful, yes. Great designs, great use of colour, fabric and stitch.
