Woodland
imps dance in the moonlight, clever elves tiptoe through
the flowers, and a cute pixie flirts from her Corvette.
It is all part of Linda M. Poole's world of Quilted
Fairie Tales. Linda provides eleven basic 'fairie'
appliqué patterns, but the fairy tale does
not end there. Appliqué enthusiasts will delight
in bringing these fanciful patterns to life with stories
of their own. The author has also provided a lot of
extra prop patterns to accompany the fairies on their
journeys. Not so long ago, not too far away, the Quilted
Fairie Tales began - on the Internet. Wizard Linda
(the author) sent forth a call for quilters to join
her on her magical mission - to create fairies in
fabric, accompanied by fanciful tales. The call was
answered, and a number of those quilts and stories
are included in the book. Several of these delightful
quilts with their stories are now part of the 'Quilted
Fairie Tales' exhibit of 50 pieces, which debuted
at the AQS Quilt Exposition in Nashville. The traveling
exhibit has a busy schedule ahead. For those who love
fairies, storytelling, embellishing, appliquéing,
and quilting, this charming collection of patterns
is perfect.
