March 2015This book by Amy Garro looks specifically at paper piecing in quilting and goes into a little more detail than ‘Quilt Talk’ above. With the extra detail, you have some more complex edges and angles discussed. These are particularly relevant to the 13 quilt projects that are included. Refreshingly, this book does not urge you to be concerned with your colour choices, rather to test-drive them by laying your fabrics out and seeing what goes together. However, if that’s a little out of your comfort zone, then the fabrics used are all referenced so you will be able to source them.The quilts featured are all modern and colourful in design with detailed cutting instructions, and the blocks laid out in order. Suggestions are also given as to how you can quilt each piece. I liked the variety of bright colours with bold patterns, and found the addition of a more muted male-orientated quilt a good contrast to cover all areas of interest.
