Stitch your way through 31 architectural block patterns, ideal for advanced beginners and intermediate quilters. Practice this straightforward approach to curved piecing, foundation piecing, and simple machine appliqué on 10 full-size quilts and 27 pillow projects. Lively color combinations provide movement and drama, with fabric selections from Tula Pink, in collaboration with Carl Hentsch.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The New York Beauty and flying geese blocks are quilting staples, and here is a fresh take on these favourites. The fabrics used in these projects range from muted darks to the lighter, brighter modern look. Colour selection is covered as well as tips for using paper foundations. Many of the projects are pillows/cushions, and this allows you to get comfortable with the process and hone your skills before tackling something bigger. All the instructions are well laid out with very clear diagrams, and you also get information about how to finish your project. If you are already a confident patchworker, use the block outlines and templates at the back of the book to create your own design.--Down Under Quilts, 180<br><br>The New York Beauty block is a showpiece, combining foundation piecing and curved piecing. Quilter Hentsch's version adds flying geese as well, increasing both the complexity and the options. The blocks are presented as a series of foundation-pieced arcs that are mixed and matched to achieve the desired effect, then combined with two template-based pieces to square off the block. Each block is incorporated into round throw pillows (which can easily be turned into square pillows if desired) and a full-size quilt. VERDICT -Adventurous quilters will enjoy both the new take on the classic New York Beauty block and Hentsch's exploration of color in quilt design.--Library Journal, July 2017<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Carl Hentsch taught himself quilting in 1997 and now travels nationally speaking and teaching at quilt guilds and shops. He holds degrees in chemistry, biology, linguistics, and accounting and business management. He lives in Missouri with three dogs and a cat.
