Many quilters are rediscovering a range of traditional patchwork and quilting techniques that, at their heart, are based on recycling and reusing materials. A style of patchwork that is true to this ethos, and which has been around for centuries, is string patchwork with its use of sewn fabric strips. Due to the scrap nature of string quilts, they are good for using a wide range and eclectic mix of fabrics that, otherwise, would have gathered dust in the corner of a room. Best-selling author, teacher and quilter Carolyn Forster will show you how to: • Transform old clothes and bedding, off-cuts and once-loved furnishing fabrics into 10 beautiful string patchwork quilts • create your favorite designs with ease, using an array of scraps featuring traditional blocks • Ensure nothing goes to waste - included here are 8 little gifts and accessories to make with the leftovers from your quilt-making including a needle case, a quilt-notions pouch, a table runner and duffel bag. A small section on all the materials and notions to get started, plus an invaluable techniques chapter, is included. Quilters will have everything they need to create planet-conscious quilts, and in the process celebrate old quilt and patchwork methods from quilters of yore.

Just in time for America’s 2026 semiquincentennial, reveals the significance—especially for women—of commemorative quilt making through 250 years of US history. Quilts were not just lying on beds during America’s history; in fact, they were sewn specifically to celebrate all of the nation’s important birthdays, anniversaries, and celebrations. Quilt historian Sandra Sider’s book explores the history of commemorative quilt making from the 1876 US Centennial to today, showing how it has acted as a tool for preserving stories, bridging cultural divides, and celebrating important moments both local and national—an easily accessible “scrapbook” in cloth. Includes • overviews of commemorative quilting as it fits in with many of US history’s key time points, • 200 photographs showing the history of and striking variations within the quilting art form, and • explanations of how quilt making intersects with sociopolitical eras, such as the civil rights movement and the women’s rights movement. Made by patriotic women early in our country’s history, by today’s most cutting-edge quilters, and by many other Americans, these quilts help us reinterpret diverse elements of US society, including women’s roles, racial equity, civic pride, and more. 256 pp. | 197 color & b/w images | HC

Next up: the principles of design such as balance, variety, movement, and repetition. For each design concept, Irene shows it to you using quilts: her own quilts and those of her workshop students. Plenty of practice is included, and to bring each concept to life, actual quilt pieces are arranged and rearranged in varied ways. As Roderick shows, a quilt is constructed of three layers, and each can use different design elements in distinct ways. Clear, easily understandable text and visuals are specifically aimed to be effective for quilters of all levels of expertise. 200 color images
