Thinking Outside the Block teaches art quilts the easy way-no rules, just fun. Deceptively simple transition units offer a bridge into the world of contemporary quiltmaking. So that quilters can loosen up and have fun as they learn, this book stresses spontaneity and experimentation. The six different block designs teach easy processes, such as inserting strips into blocks, constructing free-form units, cutting double, and creating checkerboards.
