Publisher's Note Take a guided tour through some of the world's most beautiful and historic story quilts and learn how to make an original. Twelve panel projects based on classic quilts can be stitched individually or combined to make a traditional album quilt. Each addresses a specific needlework skill, including appliqué, decorative surface stitching, machine appliqué, and trapunto, and full explanations and templates are given so that even a beginner can complete the panels. Suggestions are also given for using the designs on small-scale projects.
