Table Leaf, my design. What dining room table couldn't use an extra table leaf? OK, it's shown here on the wall, but you'll discover that it's such a breeze to make, you'll be able to turn over a new leaf every
season.















Sunflower Duet, by Lynne Hagmeier of Kansas Troubles Quilters. Even beginners can grow the Courthouse Steps flowerheads with Sawteeth petals on stems with raw-edge leaves. The book's directions make it fail-proof, and will have you basking in the light of many compliments.

















Summer Picnic, by Laurie Shifrin. Find out what drinking straws have to do with this piece made from batiks. Like every Skinny Quilts, this versatile piece looks great horizontally, vertically, on a wall, table, mantel, kitchen island, piano, ladderback chair, at the head or foot of a bed...and on and on!


















Tea 4 Two, by Laura Wasilowski. Every Skinny Quilt in this book reflects the signature style of its well-known maker, and this charmer is no exception. This book will show you how Laura fuses, free-motions, and finishes--all fun and fabulous.
