City Blocks

If you like bold appliques or fast-paced piecing--or both--you’ll adore capturing the big-city style of these 10 contemporary quilts from Nancy Rink! Playa del Sol and Costa del Sol rely on quick piecing and simple blocks, while Bryant Park, City Leaves, and Cosmo Girl feature simple applique and strong graphics. Papillons, Akimbo, Tenderness, Flower Power, and Espresso round out this collection of striking designs. Techniques include applique and patchwork, along with machine quilting. Each design is shown in a lifestyle photograph and an assembly diagram, accompanied by a complete materials list and step-by-step instructions. Wherever you live, there’s a metropolitan pattern in this collection that’s perfect for your home’s decor.
