Summary:
Forget step-by-step instructions and copycat designs. In The Improv Handbook for Modern Quilters,
Sherri
Lynn
Wood
presents a flexible approach to quilting that breaks free of old paradigms. Instead of traditional instructions, she presents 10 frameworks (or scores) that create a guiding, but not limiting, structure. To help quilters gain confidence,
