Review: Excellent beginner guide - If you want a nice, basic introduction to making quilt blocks, using traditional designs, this is a great bargain buy. It comes complete with the templates, in fairly sturdy plastic, to get going. All you need to decide on is your fabric choice and whether or not you are going to machine or hand stitch each block. I'm afraid this does act as a gateway drug to the greater wonder of quilting; this was my first book, and although my first quilt was made using a couple of jelly rolls, I continually find my way back to this one. In the less than two years since I bought this book, I've made (and had finished) three quilts of varying size, colour and design, have just finished the blocks (using this book) for number four, have one more prepared and another in the planning! One word of advice; it's a good idea to buy more plastic of similar strength to make yourself some more templates, or buy a decent heavy plastic set as if you're anything like me, you'll shave the edges off the ones supplied in no time. In summary, if you aren't sure if quilting is for you, buy this before you embark on spending more on a larger book. Review: Good for a beginner with some basic patchwork experience - I have recently started getting into patchwork and was looking for a book that could take me a step on from the simple squares that I have been doing. This book fits the bill for me perfectly. It contains the patterns to create 27 traditional pattern blocks, which vary in complexity. All of the patterns can be made using the 4 plastic templates that are included, so there is no need to go out buying templates. What I really like is that all the pattern blocks are the same size, so instead of repeating one block over and over you could mix and match. Despite only ever doing patchwork squares before, there is nothing in the book that I couldn't do. For each pattern block there is a black and white outline along with with a diagram showing you the template required and type of colour. This book does not specify individual colours such as red or blue, but instead used dark, light, bright and medium. The diagrams of the pattern blocks show the variation in colour and pattern to help you visualise the block. Personally, I like the fact that colours have not been stated as it makes for greater individuality. There is one example of a completed block on the front cover which is very traditional, but a bit old fashioned for my personal taste. I look forward to having fun working out how to use colour and pattern to modernise these traditional blocks. There is some basic information at the start of the book about completing your quilt. However if you have never quilted before you might need to get some information from another source as it is very basic. However, if like me you know the basics, but want to start using slightly more complicated blocks then I highly recommend this book to get you quickly achieving your aims. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0486249840 | | Best Sellers Rank | 402,370 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 555 in Patchwork & Quiltmaking | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (955) | | Dimensions | 20.96 x 0.33 x 27.71 cm | | Edition | 81st ed. | | ISBN-10 | 9123774274 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0486249841 | | Item weight | 136 g | | Language | English | | Part of series | Dover Crafts: Quilting | | Print length | 32 pages | | Publication date | 1 Feb. 2000 | | Publisher | Dover Publications Inc | ## Images ![Traditional Patchwork Quilt Patterns with Plastic Templates: Instructions for 27 Easy-to-Make Designs (Dover Quilting) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91wHz2tfK9L.jpg) ![Traditional Patchwork Quilt Patterns with Plastic Templates: Instructions for 27 Easy-to-Make Designs (Dover Quilting) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91jxG+1kgRL.jpg) ![Traditional Patchwork Quilt Patterns with Plastic Templates: Instructions for 27 Easy-to-Make Designs (Dover Quilting) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/A1tsmjwcTtL.jpg) ![Traditional Patchwork Quilt Patterns with Plastic Templates: Instructions for 27 Easy-to-Make Designs (Dover Quilting) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91pKe3ZJtTL.jpg) ![Traditional Patchwork Quilt Patterns with Plastic Templates: Instructions for 27 Easy-to-Make Designs (Dover Quilting) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91GxXJ0aoHL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent beginner guide *by A***R on 13 April 2014* If you want a nice, basic introduction to making quilt blocks, using traditional designs, this is a great bargain buy.

I like that it doesn't have any colour to the blocks instead they use 'light', 'bright', 'medium' and 'dark' to describe the fabric which will create the illustrated designs. I have not used this book yet but I think it will be one to reference once I have done a bit more practicing of the basics. Good price for what you get, as templates are pricey to buy in the shops. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/48996836-traditional-patchwork-quilt-patterns-with-plastic-templates-instructions-for-27](https://www.desertcart.in/products/48996836-traditional-patchwork-quilt-patterns-with-plastic-templates-instructions-for-27) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
