Quilts for Life 2 – Judy Newman

Description

After the worldwide success of her first book, Judy Newman has designed for Quilts for Life 2 a whole new series of elegant, bright and sophisticated, traditional quilts!

Her delightful fabric play brings colourful vintage and modern prints together, along with her love of Medallions, stars, hexagons, EPP, fussy cutting and appliqué. Judy is adept at both hand and machine piecing/quilting, and her new book is complete with pattern instructions, details about techniques, rich photos and filled with an immense love for fabric. Inside, she shares how fabric moves her to create and how to play with what may seem like unlikely combinations. Judy’s process is truly organic, and with this book she encourages her students to embrace the creative process; including the unexpected! With 15 projects of varying difficulties, techniques and palette combinations, there are plenty for every room in the house, and for those of your loved ones!

“Fabric is a living thing for me, I always have to touch it and arrange it, pair it with like friends but the most fun is to be had pairing fabrics with unlike friends, if that makes sense. Colours and patterns mixed together to create unexpected alliances. Much like when people of different cultures and tradi-tions merge, the result is full of life, interest and usually produces wonderfully delicious food!”
