A Ladies' Garden Karen Cunningham

Imagine sitting in the garden of an adorable British cottage in the countryside, enjoying a cup of tea while admiring the blossoming flower beds sun-kissed by the warm, Spring sun. Karen Cunningham’s book A Ladies’ Garden evokes exactly that same spirit!

Her first book features 15 of her quilts, complete with pattern instructions, and richly accompanied by inspiring photos, that bring a sumptuous garden into your home. Karen has a knack for combining appliqué with pieced blocks in such an elegant way, whether it be as a centrepiece for her quilts or to adorn her organic and wavy borders.

English Paper Piecing is one of her recurring techniques and her book includes an entire chapter dedicated to this quilting favourite!
