INTRODUCTION If youve ever designed stitched or admired modern quilts - photo 3

INTRODUCTION

If youve ever designed, stitched, or admired modern quilts, welcome! Youll feel right at home within these pages. If youve never made a modern quilt before, hold on to your hatyoure in for the quiltmaking adventure of a lifetime.

Modern quilts have spurred a popularity that harkens back to historys other quiltmaking crazes, from early sampler, Amish, and Crazy quilts to more recent obsessions with Civil War, Depression-era, and Gees Bend designs. It makes perfect sense to include the modern style in quiltmakings memoirsafter all, modern quiltmakers are the first to acknowledge that many of their works are direct descendants of traditional quilts.

In the context of quilts, modern doesnt necessarily mean contemporary. Although the quilts in this book could certainly be categorized as such, this compilation focuses on a specific aesthetic. Designs touch on ideas such as purposeful imperfections; improvisational piecing; exploring negative space; and approaching classic quilt blocks in new ways. That said, one rule of modern quiltmaking reigns: there are no rules.

If theres one thing that sets the modern-quilt movement apart from historical quilting trends, its the way in which information about it is shared. This specially selected group of designers has spread the word about the modern-quilt movement in the most efficient, most immediate way possibleby blogging about it. This dazzling, diverse collection of quilts comes from some of the blogospheres best and brightest designers. Along with detailed how-to patterns, these bloggers impart their own stories about their love of modern quiltmaking. They share how they discovered the genre, what their personal designing process is like, and what they think the definition of modern quilt-making is (a hot-button topic!). Whether you feed, follow, email, or tweet, stay in touch with these designers however you can. Theyre the next generation of quilting leaders. Theyre the ones to watch.

One thread that connects each designer to the other is the freedom they feel when making modern quilts. Try their patterns; then find your own path to quiltmaking freedom, whether its inspired by tradition, improvisation, or a combination of the two. Rememberthere are no rules!

The modern quiltmaking movement may seem new, but its already established itself as an important part of quiltmaking history. You, with this book in hand, are a witness to that history. And as you create these designs, you become a participant. Enjoy the journey!

P.S. We wanted to offer you as many step-by-step patterns as we could fit into 96 pages, so we removed our usual section on basic quiltmaking techniques. But no worriesyou can find the info on our website, in downloadable form, for free! For detailed instructions about making borders, backings, bindings, and the like, visit ShopMartingale.com/HowtoQuilt .

Yardage is based on 42"-wide fabric.

4 yards total of assorted light prints for background

yard of multicolored print for binding

4 yards of fabric for backing

62" 83" piece of batting

.

CUTTING

With this type of quilt, I prefer to cut strips or pieces as I need them. However, if you prefer to do all your cutting first, here is an approximate guide, assuming you will be making your quilt with a layout very similar to mine.

From each of the assorted scraps, cut:

1 triangle shape, no taller than 8" and no wider than 4" (use a rotary cutter and ruler so the edges are completely straight)

From the assorted light prints, cut a total of:

37 rectangles, 11" tall and ranging in width from 5" to 8" Approximately 20 strips, 1" to 5" wide 42"

From the multicolored print, cut:

7 binding strips, 2" 42"

BLOCK ASSEMBLY

Lay one triangular tree piece on top of one background rectangle. Position the tree how you want it to appear in the completed block.

Lay your ruler along the bottom of the tree and cut along the edge of the ruler. Set the bottom background piece aside so you can sew it back on later.
