المراجعة التحريرية | Diamonds need not be intimidating! Jan Krentz shows you how to make diamond quilts without set-in seams. She gives tips on color, value, texture, and contrast, and shows how to use geometric prints to add impact to your quilts. Book includes twelve new patterns and thirty inspirational gallery quilts.--Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting, May 1, 2010 This new book from Jan is just music to my ears because there are twelve new diamond patterns but without any inset seams! The designs in this collection begin with the 45DG diamond or, for the mathematicians, the parallelogram.No, don't switch off because, although creating detailed geometric patterns can be challenging, anyone of any ability will enjoy this light-hearted pattern collection with some easy piecing options that piece together in a relatively short time. Try the beginner friendly techniques and maybe even a spot of maths.--Fabrications, 10/2010 |
