 MARY’S FLOWER GARDEN

NOW AUD $15.00 ($16.50 with GST)

Just like the gardens of yesterday, quilts of the past needed much time & effort to create. The traditional Grandmother’s Flower garden quilt demanded a high degree of skill as well. The traditional method also required several thousand small hexagon pieces … each of them cut & pieced individually.
Mary’s flower garden is a modern version of grandmother’s. It has been made so simple through the clever use of applique techniques & Quiltsmart’s printed fusible interfacing. You’ll love it! Includes 3 piece flowers for easy gardening, yardage charts, garden borders plus pillows for your flower bed.

CONTENTS

  • YARDAGE CHARTS
    5 sizes ranging from a wall hanging or baby quilt to a mammoth quilt fit for a king. Numbers you can trust. You’ll know exactly how much fabric to buy & you’ll be ready to begin cutting with confidence.

    For those who said, “Not in this lifetime!”, this is it. Inset piecing without piecing. Sounds mysterious? Not with this magic method. Easy to follow & richly illustrated instructions you’ll love.
