Synopsis

Quilters could only have dreamed of making a Dresden Plate minus fussy needle-turn applique, stitching a Lone Star free from fretting over perfect points on countless diamonds, or creating an Orange Peel without matching a curve.

This dream is a reality with Jodie Davis' new book, presenting the raw edge technique she debuted a decade ago. Readers will be able to eliminate hours of pinning and matching with this fun, fast technique using a straight machine stitch. The raw edges are left exposed to become slightly frayed as the quilt is loved, washed, and dried - and then loved some more.

Simple enough for a beginner, yet exciting for a long-time quilter, this book makes both traditionally pieced and appliqued quilts a breeze.

  • 10 quilting projects, including Baskets Full of Kitties, Dressed to Bark, and Climbing Rose Log Cabin
  • Features easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions, detailed illustrations, and gorgeous photographs of the finished quilts
  • Appropriate for quilters of all skill levels
