Shadow Quilts: Easy-to-Design Multiple Image Quilts [Paperback] Review

It is no surprise to discover that Patricia is a methodical, organized designer while Donna is a "what if" sort of person.They have blended these two approaches perfectly in Shadow Quilts. The concept is that you begin with a traditional block and layer it over a shadow version of itself (or even another block).The shadow is formed by making the block appear in the background in a different fabric. The first half of the book is devoted to exploring the possibilities and explaining the concept so that you can go out and create your own Shadow Quilt.The second half contains 9 projects so you can have your hand held until you are ready to fly on your own. Their writing style is entertaining and easy to read.There are numerous sections with detailed instructions for techniques such as adding a sleeve or hand painting your fabric.If you are looking for a way to be more inventive and want a little guidance, this is a good place to start.
