Learn to draft your own patterns in any size!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Patchwork Patterns (Paperback)
This is one of my all-time favorite reference books. Jinny Beyer shows you how to take any block and break it into smaller units (4-patch, 9-patch, Mariner's Compass, etc). Instead of "copying" that pattern you admire in a quilt magazine (in the size THEY give you), you'll learn to enlarge or shrink it to the size YOU want! Every new quilter should learn to draft patterns...and many old quilters need a refresher's course. This book takes the mystery out of the math!

Super collection of patchwork blocks,
By
This review is from: Patchwork Patterns (Paperback)
This book is not about presenting you with a series of pre-written pattern recipes so that you can make up a quilt without having to do the math. You are presented with a huge collection of beautifully illustrated patchwork blocks and instructions on how to use them to draft your own quilt pattern. Photographs of antique quilts and quilts made by Jinny Beyer are sprinkled throughout the book and will have you itching to get to a quilt shop so that you can get started on a new quilt!
