Hearts and Flowers Border


Book Description

A visitor from her past jolts Laura Stewart into memories-some funny, some heart-wrenching. Thirteen years ago, Laura buried those memories so deeply she never believed they would resurface. Still, the pain of first love mars Laura's present life and might even destroy her chance of happiness with the beautiful, yet seemingly unobtainable Emma Jenkins. Can Laura let go of the past, or will she make the same mistakes all over again? Hearts and Flowers Border is a simple tale of the uncertainty of youth and the first flush of love-love that may have a chance after all.




100 Any-Size Applique Blocks


Book Description

Getting the right size templates for applique quilting just got easier, thanks to this book by Linda Causee and its accompanying CD. The book shows patterns for 100 beautiful blocks, and the CD lets you print out the templates in six different sizes or calculate how to enlarge them even more. There's no tedious tracing or copying of blocks, and if the templates become torn or worn, just print out more! The blocks are organized in five themes: Flowers, Hearts, Wreaths, Baskets, and Tropicals. Each theme presents color illustrations and template assembly diagrams for 20 patterns, along with material lists and cutting directions for three projects (bed quilt, lap quilt, and wall hanging or mini quilt).




The Humane Gardener


Book Description

In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
