Beginner's Guide to Quilting, Sewing, and Applique

Kids' Quilting Workshop is the perfect book for young and new quilters. Author Heidi Pridemore has created a collection of 12 different types of blocks that, when finished, can be fashioned into a patchwork quilt. She also includes 15 fun-to-make projects in bright, bold styles and colors that are not only achievable for young makers, but also incorporate all the basic sewing skills young and even new makers of all ages need to become successful quilters. With a complete appliqué alphabet in a hand-rendered style, projects can be personalized with names, words, and more. The motifs are teen-approved--hearts, stars, daisies, butterflies, and more--and will appeal to the young maker audience. As a solid "workshop" book for young makers, this one combines both sewing and quilting techniques and will appeal to the quilt market audience. Heidi Pridemore has a You Tube channel with over 8K subscribers where she uploads instructional videos to support the content through QR codes.
