School of Quilting

School of Quilting by Jessica Ahlstrand Kwan is an illustrated guide to making a quilt, from choosing tools and preparing fabric to piecing, quilting, and finishing. Jessica brings more than 20 years of hand, machine, and longarm quilting experience to clear, step-by-step instruction, with helpful tips and guidance for working through the questions that come up along the way.

If you’re new to quilting, the book gives you a great place to begin and walks you through each stage. If you’ve been quilting for years, it’s a useful reference to keep nearby when you want to revisit a technique or try a different approach.

I’m especially happy that Jessica uses Alison Glass Kaleidoscope fabrics throughout the projects! It’s lovely to see the woven colors take shape in her work. Our Kaleidoscope Bundle is available separately if you’d like a selection of colors to explore alongside the book.

This 272-page hardcover book features 100 color illustrations, a layflat binding with pull-outs, and measures 8" × 10". Suitable for quilters of all skill levels.
