Episode 12 Program notes:
Around the Block,
by Judy Hopkins
Around the Block with Judy Hopkins is a great reference book for blocks, and taught me a lot about the grid base of quilt blocks.
Soft-Edge Piecing,
by Jinny Beyer
Love this book for more reasons than just her section on pattern drafting.
Mariner’s Compass Quilts…,
by Judy Mathieson
Great book on Mariner’s Compass Quilts from the acknowleged expert!
My computer quilting program of choice. Visit the Electric Quilt website to pre-order EQ6 before November 20!
Great stand alone program with many pre-drafted Mariner’s Compass blocks.
Drafting and Design Simplified,
by Rodale Books
Make Any Block Any Size,
by Joen Wolfrom
Look for either of these books for good instruction for quilt pattern drafting.
The Machine Quilting - Master the Basics Workshop on CD and many other perfect gifts for everyone on your list are available now at The Quilt Shop@DreamWeaver’s Quilts.
Visit the Quilt Retreat Photo Album for a peek at the fun! You definitely shouldn’t miss the egg beater thingy!
