Summary

Quilters will love this fun and fast technique using a straight machine stitch that enables them to eliminate hours of pilling and matching. The raw edges are left exposed to become slightly frayed as the quilt is loved, washed, and dried-and then loved some more. Simple enough for a beginner, yet exciting enough for even an experienced quilter, this book makes both traditionally pieced and appliquéd quilts a breeze.
