Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Unlike most how-to-piece books which cover just one or two techniques, Innovative Piecing presents 19 unusual and original piecing techniques used by professional quilters, each clearly explained with step-by-step directions and color photographs. Like a quilt class with 19 expert teachers, this book will show quilters how to piece show-quality masterpieces.
