Savor Each Stitch ~ Carolyn Friedlander

Savor the creation process. In Savor Each Stitch: Studio Quilting with Mindful Design you are encouraged to enjoy the entire process of making a quilt, not only the finished project.

Play with 8 graphic quilt designs. In this inventive pattern book, you will discover a myriad of design possibilities in 8 featured quilts. A finished quilt’s appearance is impacted by your design decisions and materials choices, such as:

• Fabrics
• Line
• Contrast
• Scale
• Emphasis
• Color
• Volume
• Textures

Discover design possibilities. From table runners to full-size quilts, each project inspires you to play with the design possibilities and delight in the unique, artistic process of building your very own quilt.

Follow the leader. You can choose to follow the book’s inventive patterns or branch out on your own creative trail. The variety of techniques and experimentation with fabrics will appeal to quilters, who are looking to take time with their work–to savor the creation–of lasting, one-of-a-kind pieces. You are guided by thoughtful instruction, colorful illustrations and over 100 photographs of zany, bold, bright and beautiful quilts.
