Sustainable quilts made from your well loved items with the design inspiration of Carolyn Forster.
"An essential title for readers interested in the sustainable crafting movement and quilting." LIBRARY JOURNAL Starred Review Many quilters are rediscovering a range of traditional patchwork and quilting techniques that, at their heart, are based on recycling and reusing materials. A style of patchwork that is true to this ethos, and which has been around for centuries, is string patchwork with its use of sewn fabric strips. Due to the scrap nature of string quilts, they are good for using a wide range and eclectic mix of fabrics that, otherwise, would have gathered dust in the corner of a room. Best-selling author, teacher and quilter Carolyn Forster will show you how to:- Transform old clothes and bedding, off-cuts and once-loved furnishing fabrics into 10 beautiful string patchwork quilts
- create your favorite designs with ease, using an array of scraps featuring traditional blocks
- Ensure nothing goes to waste - included here are 8 little gifts and accessories to make with the leftovers from your quilt-making including a needle case, a quilt-notions pouch, a table runner and duffel bag.
