Gula expertly guides readers through the process of creating bold and graphic quilts using handmade batik fabric panels sourced from Indonesian artisans.
What sets this book apart is its emphasis on creativity and personal expression. Gula not only provides clear, step-by-step instructions for three unique projects but also encourages readers to experiment with embellishment techniques such as borders, beading, and free-motion quilting. Additionally, the inclusion of a step-by-step guide to 15 hand stitches adds a valuable resource for quilters of all skill levels.
One of the book’s highlights is the inspirational photo gallery showcasing 24 stunning art quilts. These examples serve as a testament to the boundless possibilities of working with fabric panels and provide ample inspiration for readers to embark on their own creative journeys.

Its combination of instructional guidance, artistic inspiration, and cultural appreciation makes it a valuable resource for quilters of all backgrounds.
