Shizuko Kuroha's Japanese Patchwork Quilting Patterns infuses a cherished American tradition with a Japanese sense of color, detail and design. This book brings a fresh eye to classic patchwork patterns in a way that is delighting quilters all over the world. Here, Kuroha shares her intricate hand-quilting techniques and a design sense that has been refined over her 40-year career as a celebrated book author and teacher. Her easy combinations of soft colors, detailed patterns, and bold stripes show how to achieve balance and flow in any type of patchwork project — from the simplest to the most complex.

Step-by-step illustrations walk quilters through Kuroha's intricate hand-piecework process. The book includes 19 sampler blocks used to make hundreds of different combinations for all kinds of quilting projects. The photos and diagrams of the block assembly are so clear, you hardly need to read the steps. A separate pull-out pattern sheet takes the labor out of drawing the pieces used to build these blocks.
