Vtg 1001 PATCHWORK PICTURE PIECINGS Quilt Traceable Flowers Churches PATTERNS TITLE: Patchwork Pictures- 1001 patterns for Piecing CRAFT: Quilting DESIGNER: Carol LaBranche PAGES: 130 PUBLISHER: The Main Street Press COPYRIGHT DATE: 1985 CONDITION: In very good condition with only a name written on the inside and shelf wear consistent with age. EDITION: Stated First Edition CONTENT: 20 full-color plates and more than 1000 traceable patterns. Using any combination of these imaginative patterns- all drawn on grid paper for easy transfer- quilters can now create their own original and highly personal picture quilts. Until recently, the possibilities of picture making in fabric were not explored widely because only the laborious applique technique was commonly recommended for picture-quilt making. Now Carol LaBranche shows how easy picture making in fabric can be by using traditional piecing techniques. Brought together in this unique book are such representational patterns to be pieced as houses, barns, churches, windmills, flowers, trees, leaves, baskets, people, boats, flags, trains, airplanes and alphabets, to name only some of the creative possibilities. PATCHWORK PICTURES represents a whole new approach to quilting and is an encyclopedic resource that quilters will find intriguing and valuable for years to come. These are PATTERNS only not the finished product nor the materials to complete the projects.
