My book Turnabout Patchwork
“Turnabout Patchwork. Simple quilts with a twist” is all about playing with blocks – making a block, slicing it up, and turning or repositioning the pieces to make a completely different block (sometimes two smaller blocks) to yield endless quilt tops.
- Order Turnabout Patchwork on Amazon. The hard copy book may still be available new or second hand on Amazon.
Note: My publisher Martingale is going out of business and as a result I’ve had the chance to buy the rights to my book Turnabout patchwork. And now I’m offering individual chapters of my book as digital downloads.
