Description

Spiralling motifs and entwined knot designs of the ancient Celts have a natural affinity with the delicate curves and intricacy of quilting. In 25 step-by-step projects, the author demonstrates techniques such as English quilting, Italian stuffed trapunto, and sashiko for items of all sizes.
