[Softcover, 144 pages] When you combine a sampler quilt with the ever-growing popularity of foundation paper pieced quilt blocks--those inspired by nature and gorgeous quilting prints -it's a win, win. Author Liza Taylor has created 30 flower and creatures-of-flight blocks that have a sophisticated sensibility. Individually, these blocks are beautiful; combined into a sampler quilt, they're fabulous. The blocks are so pretty that quilters may find themselves making extras for framing or wall hangings. The blocks are offered in two sizes 3" and 5", with on-page templates, but Liza instructs quilters how to enlarge a foundation pattern if they're looking for alternative size blocks and captures a fresh, modern vibe infused with the vintage charm of patchwork quilting.
