Ba comprehensive guide to fourteen different Quilt As You Go techniques with a project for each one. Quilt As You Go is piecing and quilting in one process, enabling smaller sections to be worked on at any one time. In the introduction, we learn why you might choose to use one of the Quilt As You Go methods and suggestions for which are suitable for hand, machine or both. There is a lovely section on the history of Quilting As You Go and methods from Japan (folded reversible patchwork), Korea (Pojabi or Bojabi) and India (Siddi) are also included. Equipment, tools and materials are discussed before moving onto quilting options by machine and by hand. An excellent section on binding follows including continuous mitred, square-cornered and two methods of machine-finished bindings, all of which have clear step-by-step instructions and images.For each method, there is a full description of the process for making one block, including fabric requirements. Step-by-step images, again, make following the instructions simple and these are followed by the different joining options for the blocks. A full project idea is then given to make a full-sized quilt. Full-size templates are provided to copy.This is an excellent book covering many of the most popular Quilt As You Go processes, including many project ideas. It is my book of the month.
