Show Me How to Plan My Quilting
by Kathy Sandbach
From the Author: "My goal for this book is to encourage you to consider the quilting, the stitching in-the-ditch, and the overall appearance of your quilting design from the very beginning. Most quiltmakers choose pattern designs and fabrics without giving any thought to the quilting design. However, your quilt will be enhanced if you consider the quilting from the outset. Plan spaces to showcase quilting, or leave some piecing out to allow for visible quilting. It is very rewarding to plan the quilting and have a finished piece that is beautifully pieced or appliqued and perfectly quilted. My basic philosophy is that quilting is an integral part of the quilt. It's purpose is to enhance what has been pieced or appliqued, not just to hold the layers together."

Quilt in a Day
The Magic Vine Quilt
by Eleanor Burns
Grow a flower garden in beautiful fabrics to grace your bed or wall as Eleanor Burns presents Magic Vine. The patterns for Magic Vine originated in the 1930's in a newspaper quilt column written by Florence LaGanke Harris. As part of a series, LaGanke presented one new pattern each week. In addition to the pattern, the reader was treated to a fictitious story about a quilt group and their leader, Nancy Page. In the group, they shared stories, and decided on what colors to use for their flowers. Twenty-two flowers are appliqued in rows with twinning vines. It is magical because of the variety of flowers that grow on the vine. The vine grows quickly, like the magic vine in Jack and the Beanstalk. Whimsical flowers and leaves are easily made, using light-weight paper backed adhesive or the quick turn method using non-woven fusible interfacing. The outside edges are finished with a variety of techniques: satin stitch, blanket stitch, blind hem stitch, and hand applique. Give Magic Vine a traditional 1930's look using reproduction fabrics or bright and contemporary with vibrant batiks. Enjoy embellishing the flowers with hand or machine stitches, beads, and crystals.
Product Details: Soft Cover with hidden spiral binding, Color, 8.75 " x 11", 230 pages.

Scallops, Vines and Waves Template
In designing the quilts for "Magic Vine Quilt" (#29985) Eleanor Burns developed a heavy gauge plastic template to make fancy finishes for her quilts. The template can be used to make a vine and leaves border, a waved edge, or a scalloped edge. A 16-page booklet is included with each template with instructions on its use. This template can be used with any quilt that you wish to dress up with a unique finish.

Passion for Posies
Combining floral fabrics from across the decades, Laurie Bird presents a fresh quartet of cozy quilts for you to enjoy. Choose Patchwork Vines, a blossom-bordered, pieced composition with alternating rows of appliqued flowers. Or recreate the basic piecing of Victorian Patchwork, with its graceful, scalloped border. The retro fabrics, felt appliques, and rickrack trim of Posies in My Pickets will take you back to the 1950's - and it's an excellent project for displaying vintage buttons. You'll find that Sweet Memories will inspire nostalgic daydreams with its appliqued rose bouquets and touches of easy, old-fashioned embroidery. Gather floral fabrics of every era and prepare to fill your senses with an entire garden of gentle, quilted blooms.

Fun, Fast Fusies
by Frieda L. Anderson
Fused applique is fun, it's fast, and it's opening the door to a whole new generation of quilters. The fusing techniques are so easy, a beginner does not even need a sewing machine to enjoy creating these appealing wall-sized quilts! Experienced quilters will delight in the bright, colorful projects. The full-sized applique patterns are color-coded to make it easy for quilters to match the pattern pieces to their fabrics. The designs are just the right combination of structure and serendipity: you can trace and reproduce a pattern line for line, or you can trace some pieces, cut some pieces freehand, then use the pattern as a layout guide. The quilting could not be easier: no more basting or shifting layers, and no more stopping, starting, or tying off threads at every turn. The backing, batting, and quilt top are fused together, and the applique pieces are fused and outline-quilted in layers from the bottom up.
Product Details: Softcover, Color Photos, 8 1/2 x 11", 79 pages.
