This adorable collection is inspired by Sieglinde Schoen Smiths award-winning quilt and children's picture book, Mother Earth and Her Children. Four delightful quilts--Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter--celebrate the changing of the seasons. Each one features Seiglinde's little children as they discover the wondrous world of nature. A unique combination of applique and embroidery, Seiglinde's signature style has captivated the hearts of quilters everywhere. Each pattern is showcased in colorful, close-up photography, so that you can see every part of each quilt in amazing detail. There are step by step instructions for making each one. An introductory chapter explains Sieglinde's technique and features step-by-step hand photography. A template pack, enclosed with the book, includes full-size fold-out patterns for each quilt, ready for transfer onto fabric.
