Books, Manuscripts
Sustainable quilts made from your well loved items with the design inspiration of Carolyn Forster. Many quilters are rediscovering a range of traditional patchwork and quilting techniques that, at their heart, are based on recycling and reusing materials. A style of patchwork that is true to this ethos, and which has been around for centuries, is string patchwork with its use of sewn fabric strips. Due to the scrap nature of string quilts, they are good for using a wide range and eclectic mix of fabrics that, otherwise, would have gathered dust in the corner of a room. Here are 18 scrap-busting quilts and accessories to make that won't hurt the planet.
