So many quilts, so little time? Not when you've got Time-Crunch Quilts! Bestselling author Nancy J. Martin has developed special quilting shortcuts that any quilter can use to make their quilts faster than ever before. Follow her resourceful time-crunch principles for speeding up piecing and quilting without compromising quality. Includes: Twenty delightful time-crunch patterns, from full-size quilts to cheerful wall hangings and banners. Thirteen of Nancy's clever time-crunch features that stitchers can adapt to any quilt. Traditional quilt designs updated with a fresh, new look.
Ms Martin says you can make twenty quilts in one year using her time saving techniques. Remembering that this book was written in the late 90s, early 2000, the tips given in this book... chaing peicing, strip cutting are pretty much common practice now. Ms Martin is very traditional in her colorway selection.... repros, civil war, shirtings. I think her techniques and methods are helpful but I have yet to make a large number of quilts as quickly as Judy says.
This is a good book for beginning quilters, especially if they can pick it up for a song. Pick your own colors and fabrics or use her colorways.... YOU will have a great quilt.
Great instructions for quilts that beginner to intermediate level quilters can complete. Blocks and information on cutting, piecing, and quilting easy to understand. The CD is a big bonus.
