A Creative Guide to One-of-a-Kind Heirloom Quilts · 181 pages · 95 traceable templates
I'll provide the framework. You tell the story.
95 traceable templates for quilts that look like nobody else's. Coil-bound to lay flat on your cutting table, printed on paper heavy enough to trace over and over. Signed and mailed from my studio in Texas.
Full description
Every quilt in this book starts with the same neighbors and no two ever come out alike.
Bill the EveryDuck™ is exactly what his name says. He's a framework, not a pattern. Dress him in your grandmother's apron fabric and he's a memory. Put him in your son's outgrown flannel and he's a keepsake. Mr. and Mrs. Duckworth, Professor Harrington, Hazel Bunny, Chuck the Woodpecker, Fatty the Squirrel, same idea, ninety-five times over.
This isn't a book of quilts to copy. It's a book of frameworks to make yours.
What's in your hands
181 pages, full color throughout
95 traceable templates — trace directly from the page. No enlarging, no photocopying, no guessing
Lay-flat coil binding, so it stays open on your cutting table instead of fighting you
80# coated paper, thick enough to trace over and over without tearing or bleeding through
Teaching sections on fabric choice, composition, free styling a quilt, story building, communicating movement, value, placement, and finishing
Chuck the Woodpecker's Unhinged Quilting Tips, because somebody has to say these things out loud
Block size and quilt finishing charts in the back
About the price
Ninety-five templates. Bought as individual patterns at $12 apiece, that's over a thousand dollars. Here it's about 68 cents per framework — and you can use every one as many times as you like, in any fabric you own, for the rest of your quilting life.
This is a self-published book, printed in small batches on heavy coated stock and shipped by one person instead of a warehouse. No publisher subsidized the paper, and it shows the moment you open it.
Who it's for
Quilters who are tired of making the quilt on the cover. If you've ever finished a pattern and thought this looks like everyone else's, this is the fix. The framework handles proportion, placement, and construction. You handle the part no pattern can — whose shirt it was, which fabric came from her closet, what the quilt is actually about.
Confident beginners are welcome. There's no piecing math to survive.
Shipped by me
Not a warehouse. I sign every copy, wrap it in tissue, and take it to the post office myself. Free US shipping, USPS Media Mail with tracking, packed within 3 business days. If something arrives damaged, email me and I'll fix it — because I am the whole customer service department.
Add the printable PDF for $15 — normally $37. Print any template as many times as you want and never cut up your book. Print larger or smaller depending on project.
