Along with fifteen fantastic quilt projects, you will be captivated by the stories, accompanying each quilt, that give a glimpse into the simple life of Anna Marie Saller, a mountain woman, and her family. See a few pages here, of quilts designed with traditional and original blocks. Pieced and appliquéd projects range from simple to advanced.
Instructions are included to make the individual quilts, and the General Instructions also include everything from start to finish, with a complete section on Quick Piecing techniques that every quilter loves to use.
These techniques are explained, with formulas, so that you can adapt them to your own quilt designs. There are a couple of techniques that are not found in other books. This book packs a lot between its covers.
