The Modern Quilt Workshop
Bill Kerr & Weeks Ringle
2005
Modern & Design-ForwardOne of the earlier titles credited with helping define modern quilting as a category, this book emphasizes design thinking — color, scale, negative space — over rote pattern-following. Kerr and Ringle include projects but frame them as starting points for readers to adapt. Suited to quilters who already have piecing basics down and want to develop their own design eye.
