THE STORYBUILDER METHOD™ - FRONT YARD FRIENDS- WIRE BOUND WORKBOOK + FREE PDF
Every Workbook comes with the PDF free! (it will be emailed to you within 24 hours of your purchase)
A Creative Guide to One-of-a-Kind Heirloom Quilts · 182 pages · 95 full pages of traceable templates
I'll provide the framework. You tell the story.
95 full pages of traceable templates for quilts that look like nobody else's. Double wire-bound to lay flat on your cutting table, printed on paper heavy enough to trace over and over. Printed, bound 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
182 pages, full color throughout
95 full pages of traceable templates, in both right and left facing versions. Trace directly from the page. No enlarging, no light boxes, no photocopying, no guessing
Lay-flat double wire binding, so it stays open on your cutting table
32 lb uncoated paper, thick enough to trace over and over without tearing or bleeding through
Teaching sections on The StoryBuilder Method, fabric choice, composition, free styling a quilt, story building, communicating movement, value, placement, finishing and making your quilt heirloom quality
Chuck the Woodpecker's “Unhinged Quilting Tips”, because sneaky shortcuts that make your life easier are sometimes necessary
Block and character size and quilt finishing charts in the back
About the price
Ninety-five pages of 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 stock, hand-bound with care 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- what characters and setting you want to use, which fabrics to make them yours, and what methods YOU like best
Confident beginners are welcome. There's no piecing math to survive.
Printed, Bound and Shipped by me
Not a warehouse. I print and bind every copy, wrap it to protect from damage and moisture, 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 entire production and customer service department.
Want to use your book as reference only? The PDF version arrives free with the workbook so that you can print any template as many times as you want and never write in or cut up your book. Print larger or smaller depending on project. I will be manually sending the PDF for this bundle, so please note that it will not arrive immediately upon ordering.
