Great quilts, food to die for
Provence is one of those places that conjures up warmth and plenitude. It has strong heritages in both textiles (this is where the boutis technique originates) and food, and these two French quilters have provided us a window into the original beauty of the place. Through gorgeous photos, nine quilt projects, and 13 simple and tasty recipes, this book brings the essence...

Beautiful Book
Book was purchased on the recommendation of a quilt tour leader. It's a beautiful book; however, the quilts are pretty basic and I haven't yet tried the recipes. I'm glad to have it in my collection, but would recommend a review in the library or a book store before purchase.

This review is from: Provence: Quilts and Cuisine (Paperback)
Provence is one of those places that conjures up warmth and plenitude. It has strong heritages in both textiles (this is where the boutis technique originates) and food, and these two French quilters have provided us a window into the original beauty of the place. Through gorgeous photos, nine quilt projects, and 13 simple and tasty recipes, this book brings the essence of southern France into your sewing room and kitchen. The quilt projects are varied in style and complexity, ranging from photo-transfers to simple yet original geometrics such as "Roofs of Avignon," which is my favorite. The recipes are likewise distinctive and varied - thyme bread, peaches marinated in red wine, traditional ratatouille. Like all good quilt books, this one has a section of general quilting instructions as well as detailed ones for each project. This is one to luxuriate in.
