The Gentle Art of Quilt-Making is a charming, inspirational and practical

collection of 15 quilts for would-be quilters by leading author Jane Brocket.

There’s a Russian Shawl Quilt, inspired by traditional motifs of Russian folk art, a

Floral Frocks Quilt inspired by summer dresses, flower gardens and herbaceous

borders and a Suits and Ties Quilt reusing sober woollen suiting contrasting with

extravagant silk ties designed in an Irish Chain.

Finally, a practical section covers all the knowledge you’ll need – from chainpiecing,

hand-quilting and sandwiching to binding, storage and caring for your

quilt. Armed with the design tools, you can embark on your quilting journey and

begin creating your own personal masterpiece.
