Patchwork Braids
COMING SOON - a new book by Kate Colleran.
Braids are a great design element to add to your quilts, either as an accent, a border or a key part of the block. In this book, Kate teaches how to make and use braids, and shows different ways to play with color, size and design to make the most of the technique:
- Braids as an accent strip?
- Braids with squares for a pop of color?
- Braids as a border?
- Pieced braids for even more flexibility?
It’s all here with 13 new projects including quilts, bags, pillow tops and table runners. Brought to you by C&T Publishing, the book will be released in January 2025.
Keep an eye out for our presale and special offers.

On The Quilt Show
Kate had so much fun on her first visit to the Quilt Show (Show #3311) that she came back to do it again! This time, she is the featured designer on her episode, due out early 2025. She demonstrated her Braid Template and Mini Braid Template again, this time with a sneak peak at her new book "Patchwork Braids".
And in the second half of the show, Kate shows her technique for partial seams putting the finishing touches on your quilt.
Check it out, you won't want to miss her!
