savvy in the ordinary and mundane—by combining linen and print fabrics using simple quilting
techniques.
I Love Patchwork offers a modern approach to this sewing technique that will appeal to beginning
to intermediate sewers and quilters. Readers will learn basic sewing, quilting, and patchwork
techniques combined with appliqué and stamping to create inventive, useful projects. Learn how to
buy, work with, and care for linen, plus how to choose colors for maximum effect.
Patterns range from a travel sewing kit, sewing machine cover, fabric-covered box, table runner, Quilting Arts Magazine
apron, eco-bag, towels, calendar, lap quilt, tote bag, mobile, pillow, pencil cases, shoulder bag, and page 47
much more. All projects use natural linen paired with colorful patchwork; in addition to simple fabric
piecing techniques, projects include many types of easy embellishments such as ribbons, buttons,
stamping, appliqué, and hand and machine embroidery.
These sophisticated projects are small enough to work up quickly using bits of fabric from the
reader’s stash, with charming design details that are easy and fun to make. From home décor and
gift items to wearable accessories and baby items, all projects require only basic sewing skills to get
stylish results.

personal designs.
