Book Review – Squares and Triangles: 13 Fun Patterns For Innovating And Renovating

September 5, 2021 by Shellie Wilson

Once again, expert quilt designer Elsie Campbell presents a book of quilt patterns that are one part innovation, one part thrift, and a whole lot of fun! Squares and Triangles, the second in Campbell’s “Scrap Quilt Book Series,” offers 13 basic but boldly sophisticated patterns. If you’re a beginner, you’ll want the book for its clear instructions and easy piecing steps. If you’re more experienced, you’ll love the versatility and nearly innumerable number of design possibilities shown here.

A Scrap Quilt Book By Elsie Campbell

Making the book a must-have are “Elsie’s Top Tips for Squares and Triangle Quilts,” complete with full-color diagrams. Says Campbell, “My favorite part of quiltmaking is playing with color and value so that I give a contemporary twist to traditional blocks and patterns.” She does it here—with 13 quilts shown in full-color photography, along with easy-to-follow instructions, patterns, and diagrams for making each one. For beginning and intermediate quilters.

Welcome back to our Sunday Spotlight series, where we dive into the enchanting world of Etsy quilting patterns handcrafted by talented creators. Today, we’re thrilled to showcase a pattern that exudes modern elegance and floral charm, offering versatility in sizes to adorn any space.

This modern folk-inspired pattern invites you to create a stunning quilt featuring contemporary flower motifs, available in wallhanging, baby, throw, and queen sizes.

Designed to showcase a single fabric range or a striking combination of solids or two colors, the Tall Poppy pattern is a testament to modern quilting aesthetics. Whether you’re an experienced quilter or looking to challenge your skills, this pattern offers a gratifying project that blends curved and straight piecing techniques alongside appliqué.

For those preferring acrylic templates, the pattern recommends Papper Sax Sten 3.5″ templates for the standard multi-poppy pattern. Additionally, the design process behind the Tall Poppy quilt has been documented in Make Modern magazine issues 45–48, offering insights into its creation.

While this pattern serves as a source of inspiration, it’s important to note that it’s intended for personal use only, and commercial use or reproduction without prior written consent is prohibited.
