Old Fashion Fabrics!


Image - Book Cover Sugar Sack Quilts
In their heyday between the 1930s and 1960s, colorful textile feedsacks offered an economical way for women to brighten their lives. Quilters and home-sewers scrambled to the feed store to get the prettiest sacks to turn into dresses, quilts and household items. Sugar Sack Quilts celebrates this delightful and resourceful art form. More than reproductions of old patterns, the quilts featured here are original designs that retain that cozy, old-fashioned charm. 12 projects feature original and reproduction feedsack fabrics, and are fat quarter and fat eighth friendly.
Product Details: Softcover, 8.5" x 11", Color Illus and Photos, 112 pages.

Image - Pattern Victory Quilts
by Eleanor Burns
Victory Quilts represents a look back in history to the 1940's and life on the home front during the War years. This Sampler Quilt offers patterns and techniques for 20 blocks, each one representing a slice of history with a story to tell. The blocks are traditional patterns, popular during that era and each one a symbolic remembrance: Sky Rocket recognizes the tragic bombing of Pearl Harbor; Broken Sugar Bowl brings to mind rationing during the War; Signal Light recalls air raid warnings; Army Star honors our Armed Services. Along with strip piecing, Eleanor teaches her techniques for squaring up triangle pieced squares, applique, flying geese patches, Y seams, and much more. Make a Sampler Quilt "set on point" or straight set. Each method is clearly explained and has step by step illustrations in full color. Ribbon and swag borders are explained in detail and add unique interest to the quilt projects. Same block repeat patterns are included in addition to a tablerunner. Victory Quilts contains yardage and cutting charts for several quilt sizes and the blocks can be made in either 12" or 6" finished sizes. The book has over 200 pages and includes traceable templates. Eleanor also shares a recipe for Sugarless Cake, a popular treat in wartime when sugar was rationed.
Product Details: Hardcover, Color, 8.5" x 11", 241 pages plus patterns.
