If youve always wanted to make the back of a quilt as beautiful and interesting as the front, this is the ultimate guide for you. With a total of 30 pieced quilt backing designs, be inspired and take your quilts to the next level in a unique way. Featuring helpful sections on quilt back basics, as well as guidance on basting and how to finish a quilt, there are also 18 downloadable quilt front patterns that coordinate with all 30 back designs. Colourful, fun, and perfect for quilters of all skill levels, this must-have quilt book is an excellent source of inspiration to try something new. Author Kelly Young is a quilter, pattern designer, and quilt teacher who is just as known for the backs of her quilts as she is for the front. Nearly every quilt in her collection is finished with a pieced backing, lending an unexpected design element to the flip side, making her the perfect mentor in the industry to learn from.
