  This book explains the basic techniques of quilting: wadded, corded trapunto and flat quilting, with advice on using the sewing machine, as well as working by hand. The use of different materials is studied, including knitted or stretch fabrics, and various fillings. The use of patchwork and applique is covered, and it shows how quilting can be both functional and decorative on clothes, furnishings and hangings. In the second part of the book, other materials such as card, paper, wire, glue and plastic are introduced, and the author shows how they can be used to raise the surface of the work and produce exciting three-dimensional effects.
