Jane Brocket

"Combining simple text with gorgeous photos, the latest addition to Jane Brocket's Clever Concepts series encourages children to use all five of their senses (and the corresponding body parts associated with those senses) to investigate the world around them."--

"Dotty, stripy, straight, and swirly--patterns are all around us. How many different patterns can you find pictured in this book?"--P. [4] of cover.

Jane Brocket has a joyous and colorful approach to quilting, using simple shapes and patterns to stunning effect. With "inspirational fabrics" as her starting point, Brocket explores not only made-for-the-market patchwork materials, but also unique alternatives like clothes, curtains, and upholstery. Quilters will love her designs for "Granny Takes a Trip," with its vintage look and hand-embroidery; "Needlepoint Squares," "Crinoline Lady," and more!...
