This book presents 15 original modern quilt patterns featuring vibrant colors and trendy geometric designs. Fashion accessories, home decorations, and simple, timeless garments can all be created using machine-sewn, padded, and quilted patchwork.
At the beginning of the book, dive into the world of modern quilting. Originating in the United States, this technique is revolutionizing traditional patchwork. No more hand sewing: everything is done by machine! The fabrics used are solid cottons in bright tones. The designs consist of geometric shapes assembled to create aesthetic, graphic patterns. Once the patchwork is complete, it is lined with wadding and quilted. Quilting involves stitching the work with decorative machine stitches to secure the wadding to the patchwork, giving it a soft, padded appearance.
This book contains 15 patchwork patterns. Each project is explained step by step, with the patchwork stages illustrated by the author, followed by photographed sewing steps for easier understanding. For each patchwork project, you’ll find a cutting diagram for all fabrics to be assembled, along with full-size templates on a pattern sheet. Tote bags, pouches, plant pot covers, sweatshirt pockets, jacket or vest appliqués, clutches, tablet cases, sewing bags, and even pins and hair clips… not to mention the essential blankets and pillowcases… This book revisits the “classics” of patchwork to create stylish and practical accessories!
The projects are designed for various skill levels, from simple beginner-friendly patterns to more advanced ones for experienced sewers, and also include useful ideas for repurposing your fabric scraps!
