Friends comfort us in troubled times and help us celebrate the good times. Friendships provide precious memories that can be stitched into a quilt. Having gathered over 20 years of quilting friends, we decided to celebrate them with this book, a treasury of friendship quilts.
We designed big quilts, small quilts, muted quilts, and yes, even a "teach your friend to quilt" quilt. We suggest scrap and block exchanges to share with groups and friends. Sprinkled throughout are quotes about friends and friendships that might just prompt a memory that in turn will inspire a quilt for a treasured friend.
Offering an assortment of styles and skill levels, this group of 20 quilts and wall hangings is a collection you will come back to again and again. Included are several quick-and-easy, small projects that are perfect for last minute gifts.
As Billie Holiday said, "If I don't have friends, I ain't got nothing." Celebrate your friends - make a quilt!
