Mar 09The complex quilts of Paula Nadelstern have continued to evolve since her signature kaleidoscope images earned public acclaim more than a decade ago. In this book, the artist explains the influence of actual kaleidoscopes on her art, the benefits of working in a series, and the thought behind each of the 19 incredible pieces showcased on the pages. Part of the book is instructional, with information for the experienced quilter on drafting kaleidoscope blocks, template piecing, and choosing the right fabrics. Paula's humor makes this personal material an entertaining read.
