Bear's Paw Plus: Make New Tracks With Sampler Blocks

Rating:
Summary: When is a bear paw not?
Review: This book is narrowly focused on a technique for quilt-making based on variations of the popular bear's paw block. The idea grew out of teaching experiences at a quilt camp, and involves replacing the traditional center or "paw pad" of this block with a simple sampler block, like the nine-patch or the shoofly. The effect can be quite dramatic and beautiful, as well as being a lot of fun. The book contains instructions for making the sampler blocks as well as general information on rotary cutting, borders, and binding. Full color with lots of example quilts.
