Great for beginners, as well as experienced quilters who enjoy quick projects, traditional quilted potholders let you experience all the satisfactions of making a quilt -- in miniature! You get to piece the block, join the batting and backing, and then do a little quilting. In this fun book, Linda Causee and Rita Weiss present 110 8-inch patchwork patterns, so you can equip your kitchen with a variety of potholders -- or use the blocks to design your own wall hangings, tablecloths, placemats, clothing, or quilts of all sizes! For each potholder shown, there is an assembly diagram and a list of the templates and fabrics needed. All 110 patterns are based on seven simple templates included in the book.
