After explaining andexamining the way the old quilt is composed an instruction is included howto duplicate them. Each piece is also followed by suggestions how to alterthe original block by using different fabrics, colors, lay-out...
Thelast chapter explains the basic techniques used, but don't expect elaborateinstructions. The main strength of the book is to inspire you, to stimulateyou to develop your own quilts by starting from ancient examples.
