About the Book
The individual appeal of creating your own pictorial quilt has inspired quilters for many years In The Quilter's Guide to Pictorial Quilts, Maggi McCormick Gordon presents a contemporary look at this long tradition, with a selection of quilts reflecting the imagination of the modern quilter.
Pictorial quilts are immensely rewarding - whatever your abilities. Godon takes you through some simple stages with tips and ideas on how to design and plan your quilt, achieve successful compositions, create special pictorial effects, and combine colours for maximum effect.
A gallery of quilts arranged by themes - landscapes, plants and flowers, animals, seascapes, and figures - illustrates the many ways the contemporary quilters have approached these popular subjects and will inspire you to create your own personal masterpiece.
With full-colour photographs of over 50 stunning quilts, The Quilter's Guide to Pictorial Quilts is an inspiring introduction to one of the most enjoyable and rewarding aspects of the quilter's art.
