Synopsis:
In this fast, fun quilting guide for anyone who loves to embellish with beads, buttons, and baubles, more than 150 color photos showcase a huge variety of techniques, using everything from conventional beads to shi-sha mirrors, dangles, jewelry, ribbons, lace, and rickrack. Quilters will enjoy crafting an assortment of postcard-sized mini-quilts—perfect for trying out new embellishment techniques and making quick, inexpensive gifts that display artistic skills. With some projects featuring lovely found objects that gain new life on quilts, each quilt idea is explained in descriptive captions, while the text focuses on techniques for attaching slippery, shiny, glittery, or oddly shaped items to quilts. A chapter on design helps beginners plan their projects and covers everything from design basics to knowing when to stop.
