Synopsis

Among the most traditional of quilting designs, the Four-Patch is also among the least complicated, making it an excellent pattern for beginners. In this clearly written and easy-to-follow book, veteran quilt designer and teacher Gwen Marston provides patterns for 20 small quilts featuring this attractive design.
Clear diagrams, step-by-step instructions, and 24 sturdy, full-size templates make it easy to produce such appealing creations as Four-Patch Zigzag, Four-Patch in Pinwheel-Star Setting, Plaid Four-Patch, Big and Little, Four-Patch and Star Medallion, Morning Star Set, and other eye-catching designs.
Just the right size for wall hangings, charming covers for doll beds and other accessories, the finished quilts range in size from 14" x 17½" to 19½" x 21".
