As soon as they pick up the basics of sewing, many kids become curious to understand how to stitch together fabric scraps to make one big piece. This comprehensive, photo-rich guide shows kids how, with step-by-step instructions for creating one-of-a-kind quilt tops, then adding batting and backing, and stitching the layers together to make a finished quilt. Young sewers can practice their quilting skills with more than a dozen creative and practical projects -- including an illustrated placemat, a foundation-piecing pencil pouch, a patchwork pet bed, an appliqued family crest, and a recycled T-shirt quilt.
