501 Quilt Blocks: A Treasury of Patterns for Patchwork & Applique (Better Homes and Gardens Cooking)

Subtitled A Treasury of Patterns for Patchwork & Appliqué, this comprehensive book is just that--250 pages of pattern-block diagrams accompanied by concise construction directions and small color photos of the made-up blocks in well-chosen colors. In addition, a prelimary chapter gives instructions for about 15 projects, and a tips and techniques section outlines the basics for making the blocks and the projects. Whether your tastes run to the more traditional (nine-patch, star, basket, or pineapple variations, among many others) or the more experimental (appliquéd orchids, cacti, or heraldic designs, for example), you're likely to find something of interest here.

501 pieced and appliquid quilt blocks, easily customized for unique, personalized themes.

40 step-by-step projects for using blocks in the form of wearables, personal accessories, and home and seasonal decorations.

Illustrated with more than 500 full-color photos and 600 line drawings.

Contains extensive ideas -- from tea cozies and pillows to clothing and full-size quilts.
