I didn't think a new edition could be any better, but this refresh is even more inspiring. Not only has she updated technical aspects (adding sections on fusible web applique and free-motion quilting, for example), she has chosen spectacular recent quilts to illustrate the text. While marvelling over them, I was reminded that quilting is an ever-evolving art that brings joy and satisfaction. Linda's book captures that perfectly, and leads us through how to do it ourselves.\" - \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracy Chevalier, novelist and quiltmaker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Search Press Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41740130910386,"sku":"9781782218852","price":410.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9191\/8002\/products\/365811_622f5151247922.21723176_9781782218852_548640d0-0015-4737-bdc3-c3419b4cc453.jpg?v=1658959053","url":"https:\/\/www.wordsworth.co.za\/products\/the-complete-book-of-patchwork-quilting-applique","provider":"Wordsworth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
