These four pieced quilts by Peggy Waltman bring to mind quiet, restful afternoons tailor-made for naps and generally just taking it easy. But another kind of fantasy these quilts will inspire is that of an uninterrupted afternoon with just you, your rotary cutter, and a large stack of fabrics. The beautifully machine-quilted projects include three wall hangings or throws and a large bed quilt. The Memories lap quilt is a delicious comfort pieced of memorable fabrics. The happy Colorful Thoughts bed quilt demonstrates colorful thinking behind its assembly of bright strips and pale squares. With the sunny Provence quilt, you can imagine a summer day in an Old World kitchen. The Quiet Afternoons quilt is a peaceful gathering of pastel blocks on point.
