Synopsis

Quilters can now design and draft their own fabulous quilts in any size or shape. DRAFTING AND DESIGN SIMPLIFIED takes the mystery out of the maths, showing how simple it really is to design quilt blocks, resize blocks, cut triangles of any size and shape, and more. Quilters are liberated from their dependence on specific pattern instructions, with the most up-to-date information presented photographically in step-by-step visual sequences. Finally, readers will be able to draft stars, curves, circles, flying geese, Mariner's Compass, and even a pineapple block with ease.
