Review from Popular Patchwork, August 2016
Karen Burns has compiled a collection of sixteen quilts by top designers based on the traditional Nine Patch block. This is a perfect book if you are looking for designs that illustrate how a basic block can be used in alternative ways to create quilts that are very different. Each of the chapters show how changes in block size, colour, composition and quilting can be used to vary a design. There are also good examples of how sashing, borders, changes of scale and block orientation can enhance a quilt design plus how to include additional elements such as applique. If you are keen on Nine Patch blocks, I am sure you will find patterns in the book you would like to make as the projects vary from colourful modern designs to more traditional quilts.
