[.ca] Quilts With a View: A Fabric Adventure (ISBN 1574327135)

A Great Book With a New Twist in Quilting:
I love traditional quilting but, for me, I needed more. This book released all my wild ideas and I felt free to be more expressive with my quilting! I also love collecting unusual fabrics but hated to cut them into traditional pieces for traditional quilts. After buying this book and making the projects, I now have room to buy more fabric. This book has many different techniques and with the detailed instructions all projects turn out fantastic. The author included a gallery at the back of the book that is filled with inspiring "windows".

A quick and easy way to showcase art fabric.:
Do you have a piece of fabric that's too great to cut, and just sits on your shelf? Cut a fabric frame for it -- oval, heart shaped, free-form -- and showcase it as a wall hanging or full-sized quilt. No patterns needed; just a sharp pair of scissors and simple quilting and applique skills. Author Labanaris shows you how to do it, and presents a gallery of view quilts for inspiration. These make great fast-and-easy projects!
