Combining floral fabrics from across the decades, Laurie Bird presents a fresh quartet of cozy quilts for you to enjoy. Choose Patchwork Vines, a blossom-bordered, pieced composition with alternating rows of appliquÉd flowers. Or recreate the basic piecing of Victorian Patchwork, with its graceful, scalloped border. The retro fabrics, felt appliquÉs, and rickrack trim of Posies in My Pickets will take you back to the 1950's - and it's an excellent project for displaying vintage buttons. You'll find that Sweet Memories will inspire nostalgic daydreams with its appliquÉd rose bouquets and touches of easy, old-fashioned embroidery. Gather floral fabrics of every era and prepare to fill your senses with an entire garden of gentle, quilted blooms.
