Description

A complete quilting course for beginners, in 12 easy stagesA Beginner's Guide to Quilting is the perfect introduction to this popular craft.

Beginning with the 'Getting Started' section, quilting teacher Michael Caputo will show the tools and equipment, and demonstrate the sewing skills you will need, plus the basics of constructing your quilt.

Section two is a series of 12 workshops, each introducing you to new skills, with a project at the end which enables you to practise what you have just learned.

You'll learn about joining pre-cut squares, sashing, piecing and paper piecing, using templates, and the different types of applique.

All through the workshops there are helpful hints on choosing colours and patterns, and there are illustrations of variations on the basic blocks to show how those choices will affect the end result.

With step-by-step text and clear illustrations, you'll soon be making a table runner and cushion covers, before moving on to wall hangings, a cot quilt and a throw.

The final project is a full-size bed quilt with elaborate stitching to really show off all your new skills.
