DIY Blogger Nancy Purvis explores what happens when you play with placement, scale, and color of HSTs to achieve bold designs. And she doesn't stop there! <i>Quilting from Every Angle</i> also includes techniques on Flying Geese blocks, Y-seams, paper-piecing, and more. Whether it's acute or obtuse, Nancy's covering all the angles with valuable tips and tricks to achieving precision points.</p><p>You'll be seaming together finished works, including quilts, throws, and wall pieces that look like they came from trendy designer catalogs--all while mastering the art of angles!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"There's a greater diversity of styles than in the typical modern quilting collection...the tips for sewing more unusual angles and forms that will be most useful. There's an abundance of substance in this debut, and modern quilters will relish the mix of styles and projects." --<i>Library Journal</i><br /><br /> "I seldom pick up a book and find more than 2-3 projects in the book that I just need to make. This book offers so many choices that meet my design aesthetic. The projects are well made to show off their modern design elements--each project highlights the design elements, the color, and the quilting choices." --Factotum of Arts</p><p>"I felt compelled to make not just one item using her beautiful designs but TWO. In reality it was hard for me to pick from the gorgeous patterns featured and I am sure there will be more to come." --Entropy Always Wins</p><p>"Nancy's book, <i>Quilting From Every Angle</i>, is a true reflection of her style and is consequently one of my favorite quilting books ever. I do love a good quilt book but in truth they are normally lovely eye candy full of wonder but with maybe 1-2 projects that I would actually want to make. <i>Quilting From Every Angle</i> is full of quilts I want to make...every single one of them.... Not only is the book full of quilts that I would love to make but it is a great resource too." --Karen Lewis Textiles</p><p>"I really enjoyed reading about the inspiration from each one as well as the opening chapters on technique. There are so many unique designs that range from fairly straightforward to more complicated and challenging. I really enjoyed all the thorough diagrams within the instructions, there are many for each pattern, so it's really nice to have a visual to go along with the written instructions." --Noodlehead</p><p>"There's a great chapter on finding inspiration and developing your own style and designs. My favourite piece of advice from this section is 'don't be afraid of mistakes', oh yes, very good advice." -- Wooden Spoon Quilts</p><p>"Guy's it's just good. SO so good." --Rad & Happy</p><p>"Full of eye-catching geometric designs, the book gives you lots of options for making a quilt that makes a statement... It's a beautiful book and a wonderful addition to your quilting library!" --Ellison Lane</p><p>"Everything she makes is modern and edgy and she has this amazing talent for balancing color and pattern to create movement and structure in her quilts." --Holly Goes Quilty<br /><br /> "From the moment I got my hands on Nancy Purvis' <i>Quilting from Every Angle</i>, I was mesmerized!" --Soulful Eyes<br /><br /> "It's a book full of fantastic patterns--all modern and angular, and full of vitality." --Red Red Completely Red<br /><br /> "[T]o be honest it took me a long time just to figure out which quilt to make because there were so many I loved!" --Bijou Lovely<br /><br /> "[T]he tips through-out the book stand out on their own without getting lost in the instructions." --The Tattooed Quilter<br /><br /> "Get ready for a bold, graphic approach to quilting with Quilting from Every Angle!" --Spoonflower</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Nancy Purvis</b> is a home décor, style blogger, and stay at home Mom that loves to sew and quilt.
