Back Cover Information

EXPLORE THE COLORS, THE PATTERNS AND THE ART OF QUILTING

America's exquisite tradition of quilting is a true melting pot, with influences carried over the ocean with immigrants from Holland, France, Italy and England. In these pages, you'll find patterns inspired by quilts from the golden age of quilting: the 17th through the 19th centuries.

Instead of a needle and thread, your tools are pencils, markers, crayons or pastels; rather than piecing together art from scraps or worn-out clothes and feed sacks, the textures and colors come from your imagination.

EXPERIENCE A TRADITIONAL ART, UNCHANGED THROUGH GENERATIONS

The Amish are famous for their detailed, precise quilts, with collectors traveling from around the world to communities in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. Pick up your markers (or crayons, pencils or pastels) and create your own masterpieces with the Amish-inspired patterns in this book.

"The Plain People", as the Amish call themselves, create beautifully colored, creative pieces of art with every quilt; rather than using a needle and thread, you use colors to create your own intricate details and add new textures, contrasts and tone combinations.
