March 12Subtitled 15 bed runners, table toppers and wall hangings, this book is for all those who want to make smaller quilts - quicker to make and just as lovely as full-size quilts. Kim shows her great sense of design and colour for the contemporary home. As always with CT Publishing, great layout, great book design with easy to use instructions and super photos. It makes the quilt construction very easy to follow. Chunky Monkey is my favourite design, but I liked them all.
