The complete beginner's guide to machine quilting, from best-selling author, Carolyn Forster.

Discover 1 classic quilt block worked 30 different ways, for a cohesive range of inspiring, beginner-friendly designs!

Carolyn has taught hundreds of beginners to quilt, and this book follows her tried-and-tested teaching method for getting started. Using one classic block design (the Sawtooth Star), a multitude of inspiring techniques and a clever use of fabric, she shows you how to sew over 30 different star blocks with ease. Build up your skills as you go, and create a stunning and unique heirloom quilt to be proud of.

  • SKILL-BUILDING STRUCTURE: Each of the 30 blocks introduces a new patchwork technique that's more challenging than the last to build your skills gradually. From the simple Four Patch and Flying Geese units through to the brain-testing Split Quarter Square Triangles, you'll cover core patchwork methods that are essential for making your first quilt, and will be invaluable for quilts in years to come
  • COMPLETE QUILTING GUIDE: Once you've made up your star blocks, discover how to put them together. There's advice on different layout options; adding strips (sashing or coping strips); squares (posts) and borders; quilting; attaching binding; labelling; and much more
  • MIX AND MATCH DESIGN: All the blocks in the book are 12-inch square, so it's easy to mix and match your favorite motifs to create your own unique quilt. And, with just a few quick-to-learn math formulas, Carolyn shows you how to sew any size quilt you like for even more tailoring potential
