Picture Piecing Traditional Quilts by Cynthia England

Have you ever wanted the look of applique without the handwork? Author and
artist Cynthia England has found it with her innovative Picture Piecing
method. This is not a foundation or paper piecing method.

Picture Piecing Traditional Quilts is an 8 1/2" x 11" book with 154 pages
in a special lay-flat binding and full color throughout. The quilts in the
book are entirely machine pieced with all straight-line piecing, even the
details that look like applique from a distance. Unlike foundation and
paper-piecing, with Cynthia's Picture Piecing technique you work from the
right side of the fabric and there is no paper to pick out at the end. Best
of all, cheating is encouraged to get your blocks perfect!

Great for beginners! This beautiful book was written to introduce the
Picture Piecing technique to traditional quilters.

There are 17 Gorgeous projects inside, from table runners to large quilts
appealing to all levels.

* Picture Pieced block projects inside are all 6" finished. The designs
can be interchanged in the projects. For instance, instead of having
Rose Buds in the center of the Windswept Roses quilt, change it to
Violets.
* In the Traditional Quilts section of the book there are quilts that
have no Picture Piecing in them.
* Traditional quilt designs have an area which is a 6" finished block.
So, if you wanted to, a Picture Pieced design could be dropped in.

Fabric kits are available for most of the book's projects.
