Sampler quilts, like the Farmer's Wife or Dear Jane quilt, are a staple of traditional quilt-making. Best known for her fanciful fabric designs, Pink puts a modern spin on this old-school format with this collection of six-inch blocks, all designed and sewn in her vibrant fabrics. Each block design includes a close-up photograph of the finished block, along with cutting directions and a piecing diagram. This format will be familiar to quilters who have made sampler quilts before. The directions are in diagram form, so some basic knowledge of patchwork piecing is required. Five full-size quilts incorporating all or most of the blocks in the collection are provided. (Library Journal)
