Back Cover Information

Bravely use those big, beautiful prints you see in quilt shops and fabric stores for more than just borders and backs!

Author and expert quilter Karen Snyder shows you how to easily incorporate large scale fabrics into many beautiful traditional and non-traditional quilts, whether you cut them up into smaller pieces or leave them large.

  • Step-by-step instructions for 15 projects, including table runners and bed quilts.
  • Ideas for using floral prints, Asian prints, paisleys, toiles and novelty print.
  • Techniques that can be applied to any large scale fabric you choose ... in addition to those presented in this book.

Author Karen Snyder About the Author

Big Print Quilts is Karen Snyder's fourth book. It follows the popular Bundles of Fun and Fat Quarter Fun, and her new book Quilts from My Garden. Besides designing quilts and authoring books, Karen own Anna Lena's Quilt Shop and designs 1930s reproduction fabrics—called Wash Tub Prints—for Andover Fabrics.

Although she always knew that she would someday be a quilter, Karen didn't start quilting until 1995 when she received a free quilt pattern in the mail. Once she started hand piecing that Grandmother's Flower Garden, she was hooked and hasn't looked back.
