Synopsis

Add pizazz to any quilt by capturing the vibrant energy of string piecing. The authors show how to create exciting and graphic quilts using 'strings', narrow strips of fabric, sewn to a paper or fabric foundation. You can chain piece your strings for fast and easy sewing - fun to do alone or with a friend. Twelve simple and delightful string quilt patterns, with complete step-by-step instructions, will introduce you to the unlimited possibilities of this classic technique. The patterns give a colorful new look to such traditional favorites as Spools, Lone Stars, and Kaleidoscopes.
