The book starts with a one-page introduction, followed by a four-page Churn Dash basic techniques. Next, the book shows you five ways to lay out the blocks that create a Churn Dash, making each block look different.

The book has 15 patterns. Each has a blurb, material and cutting lists and you might just find a special note set off in a two-sided box. There are plenty of graphics to help you visualize what you are creating. If templates are needed, they are provided at full size. A quilting design to finish the project is left up to you. The end of the book has a page of bios of all the authors that provided patterns.

What I didn’t see among all the patterns was one with two of the blocks from page 9 – a block with a cross in the center and a block with an asymmetrical design. That is not a problem for me but I’m going to bet there are some quilters out there that would like to see a pattern using these two blocks.

Their patterns provide a wide variety of styles and techniques with hard and soft edges, secondary patterns, the use of positive and negative space, block scale and fabric.
