  A collection of 350 designs for traditional patchwork, all created from a few easy-to-use squares. The book contains ideas for wallhangings, full-size quilts or cushions, ranging from delicate styles to bold and striking designs. Each one is built from a few basic squares - often just one or two - so even the most intricate patterns are easy to make. All squares are shown in line drawings, easy to enlarge for the cutting of templates, and the designs are presented in a way which makes it easy to visualize the finished patchwork and to see the effects of different colourways. This book has been compiled using a specially devised computer program.
