Get the look of complex piecing with a savvy shortcut - striped fabric! With 12 versatile quilt patterns using solid stripes, multicoloured stripes, and even chevrons, you'll explore modern blocks with maximum impact. Slice apart striped fabric and rearrange it into something new to create illusions of movement, depth, and texture. Pick up useful techniques along the way, like cutting on the bias and arranging blocks in unexpected ways. Patterns range from beginner to more advanced, and each quilt is shown in two colourways-it's easy to use any striped fabric from your stash!

Reviews for Stripe Quilts Made Modern: 12 Bold & Beautiful Projects. Tips & Tricks for Working with Striped Fabrics

A modern slant on stripes. Discover 12 projects that use bold striped patterns. Find colour options and 3 sizes for each project. The projects are equally divided into easy, intermediate and advanced. The book includes information on working with stripes and takes a creative approach to design. Includes tips for using stripes, cutting on the bias, matching seams and more. For each project you will clearly see the materials needed, cutting, construction and alternate colourways. Great attention to detail, easy-to-follow instructions and excellent photos throughout. My favourite is the Modern American quilt. This book not only provides 36 size options in 12 designs, it will get you thinking seriously about stripes and how to incorporate them into your quilts. YarnsandFabrics.co.uk
