At long last, Patricia Bolton, founder and editor in chief of Quilting
Arts Magazine has assembled a compilation of exciting and fun art-quilting
techniques to inspire both the new and seasoned fiber artist to develop their
skills and boost their confidence in creating unique art quilts. The Quilting
Arts Book: Techniques & Inspiration for Creating One-of-Kind Quilts showcases
some of the most popular topics, articles, and artists from past issues of Quilting
Arts Magazine as well as presents new and fresh techniques offered
by today's most respected contemporary quilt artists.
