 FAST FUSIBLE QUILTS

GST will be added for Australian residents only.


Cross-stitch quilts made easy. Adapt any charted design to a quilt in a snap with the help of today's fusible tools! This fun, step by step approach is based on a simple, grid based format which will allow quilters to create beautiful quilts from charted cross-stitch, needlepoint, or latch-hook designs.
Three quilt projects illustrate how to transform needlework motifs into quilts with the ease and speed of gridded, fusible interfacing. Once quilters understand the technique, they can use elements from their best loved charted designs to create original quilts which are virtually foolproof to stitch.
Includes instructions for sewing the entire alphabet on grids, so quilters can personalise their projects with monograms.
