Summary

“An exercise in modern, modular play, using time-honored quilt blocks and a combination of solid, batik and hand-dyed fabrics to make the quilts sing.” —Fabrications Quilting for You 
 
Author Lisa Walton shows you how to start with an easy quilt block like Four-Patch or Flying Geese, stitch it up in several different sizes, then build your blocks into striking improvised quilts with up-to-the-minute style using solids, batiks and hand dyed fabrics. The piecing couldn’t be easier, and the design possibilities are endless with two ways to play: make quilts exactly like the ones in the book, or learn to improvise your own unique creations. Includes 8 step-by-step complete quilt projects, 4 bonus projects, plus a gallery to inspire even more possibilities! 
 
“Lisa Walton presents her debut book sharing her technique of taking a simple geometric block, making it up into multiple sizes then joining those new modules together to create exciting and dynamic quilts. Also learn tips for using color and fabrics effectively.” —Australian Quilters Companion 
 
 
“Author Lisa Walton encourages quilters to make quilts using one simple shape in a variety of sizes. She starts with the simplest of blocks (Four-Patch and Flying Geese) and progresses to hand-dyeing fabrics and improvisational piecing.” —Quilts & More

    Mix 1 oz. Chelsea Handler, 1.5 oz. Nora Ephron, finish with a twist of Tina Fey, and you get Ali in Wonderland, the uproarious, revealing, and heartfelt memoir from acclaimed actress and comedian Ali Wentworth. Whether spilling secrets about her quintessentially WASPy upbringing (and her delicious rebellion against it), reminiscing about her Seinfeld "Schmoopie" days and her appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The View, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, or baring the details of starting a family alongside husband George Stephanopoulos, one thing is for sure-Ali has the unsurpassable humor and warmth of a born storyteller with a story to tell: the quirky, flavorful, surprising, and sometimes scandalous Ali in Wonderland. 
"Ali Wentworth is funny and warm and crazy all at once. Like Barbara Eden. But on something. Like crystal meth." -Alec Baldwin
