Perfect for you if...

  • You've been quilting for a few years and feel stuck repeating the same patterns without developing a genuine artistic direction.
  • You want concrete exercises and real examples from working quilters to help you move beyond technique into genuine creative exploration.
  • You're preparing work for gallery shows or competitions and need a strategic approach to building a cohesive collection.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You're a complete beginner looking for basic quilting instructions; this assumes you already know how to piece and quilt.
  • You prefer abstract or improvisational approaches and find the idea of working in series too restrictive or formulaic.
  • You quilt purely for relaxation and have no interest in developing a body of work or showing your quilts professionally.

About this book

This guide from art quilter Elizabeth Barton is designed for quilt artists who have mastered foundational skills and wish to develop greater creativity and technical ability. The book explores how creating a series of quilts can generate new ideas, reveal deeper aspects of familiar subjects, and develop a cohesive body of work suitable for exhibition. The guide includes creative exercises to help you establish your own themes and techniques. A gallery of over 200 examples from Elizabeth Barton and other working art quilters illustrates the concepts throughout. Through hands-on lessons and practical examples, the book addresses how to advance your quilting practice and expand your creative approach.
