The book introduces the reader to many different techniques - all of which are used to create something desirable. Starting with simple hand and machine quilting, the book then offers pattern glossaries for borders and motifs. More advanced quilting techniques such as tied, corded and padded work are included, too. The next section covers patchwork and appliqué. Readers will find out how to use both simple single shapes and more complicated block patterns to create impressive effects. Finally, there is information on how to create all types of personal imagery in appliqué, which can be applied to many different items.
