Make a leafy quilt inspired by the hills and forests of Central Italy. Designed and made by Tricia Revest

Early Spring

A simple scrap quilt, designed by Mavis Haslam and sewn using two traditional basket blocks - Cactus Basket and Basket of Chips - and only 3 templates

Spring Fever

This quilt uses just one traditional block called Evening Star (also known as Texas Star). However the clever placing of the colours and fabric creates a secondary pattern. Designed by Beth Ann Bruske and sewn by Lyn Oser Mann, it uses a collection of American fabrics from David Textiles. Here it looks very fresh and spring-like. However, it would also look quite dramatic and more like a sparkling night sky, if a selection of deep blues and purples were used with occasional flashes of lighter colours. Once all the patches are cut out, it is very fast to piece.

Jigsaw Quilt

This is a lovely quilt to make, which uses the Drunkard's Path blocks as the interlocking sections on the jigsaw pieces

Rubies and Diamonds

a little gem of a quilt! This quilt is made using quilt-as-you-go and a stitch-and-flip method of construction; make up the blocks individually, trim to size and then use sashing to assemble the quilt

Jelly Roll rail fence

Use Jelly Roll strips to piece this reversible quilt-as-you-go project. Designed by Fiona Law, made by Sally Stevens and Sadie Yeomans.

Old Maid's Puzzle

Old Maid's Puzzle is a traditional patchwork block which works well in a one block quilt. It is a simple block to construct but, when you use colour and tone in the following way, the finished quilt gives the impression of a complicated design. Designed and made by Stephanie Pettengell Subscribers Only

Going round in circles

A quilt to brighten any dull day, with machine appliqued circles. Designed and made by Ruth Eglinton and half-square triangles the quick foundation way!

Kiku Kahei

Traditional fan blocks take on an oriental twist in this striking bed throw which uses an exotic chrysanthemum quilting pattern for extra effect. Designed and made by Judith Wilson
