Susan has chosen bright, strong colors and traditional prints reminiscent of the famed album quilts, to create a new look for some old favorites. Then she adds four bonus blocks for mix and match elegance.Instructions are included for choosing fabrics and for making the appliqu blocks and border. For each block, the author provides information on color considerations and stitching sequence.The author also provides photos of Country Cousins Variations, showing how these sweet blocks can be used individually in small wall quilts, home decor, clothing, and accessories. A section on writing and stamping on quilts follows and includes embellishing the appliqu elements with ink.
