This pattern book is all you need to make a replica of Lucy Boston's Patchwork of the Crosses, but you will probably also want Inklingo Lite # 4, so you can print the shapes on fabric, instead of using traditional templates.
The Lucy Boston Combo (book plus Inklingo Lite # 4) is available for a special introductory price.
The book includes close-up photos of many of the blocks, a centerfold picture of the whole quilt, fabric notes, and instructions for English Paper Piecing, hand piecing, machine piecing, and hybrid piecing (hand and machine).
This pattern was prepared with the gracious assistance of Diana Boston and is illustrated with photoraphs by Julia Hedgecoe.
Lucy Boston's spectacular patchwork was made with only one shape, but the use of fabric is very creative. VIDEO (3 minutes)
