The Practical Guide to
Patchwork: New Basics for
the Modern Quiltmaker
By Elizabeth Hartman
Book review by Susie Voth
Not all of us are people who
make things. Sometimes what
stops us is the unknown, the
untried, the unfamiliar.
Elizabeth Hartman sets down
all the basics of quiltmaking in
this book. From gathering sup-
plies to color theory, to choosing
fabric to quilt construction, to
quilting and binding, she
explains it all in easy to under-
stand steps.
I am impressed by the clarity
of Hartman’s explanations and
instructions. I especially appreci-
ated the sidebars that she calls
“tips.”
I am a self-taught quilter. I fig-
ured out by trial and error what
Hartman has included as clearly
written “tips.” Oh how I wish I
had this book when I started
quilting!
The first section of the book is
called “All the Basics.” Hartman
explains quilt vocabulary, quilt-
ing tools and useful supplies,
how to plan a quilt, and quilt
construction. The first half of the
book is dedicated to helping the
novice quilter understand the ins
and outs of quilting.

PREPARATION:
Melt the brown sugar, honey and butter in a small
saute pan over medium-high heat. Remove from the
heat and whisk in the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil
and ginger. Let cool.
Preheat grill to medium heat. Brush salmon with
vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper to
taste. Place the salmon skin side down on the grill.
Coat the flesh of the salmon fillets with the brown
sugar mixture. Grill for 6 to 8 minutes to medium
doneness, turning once after 5 to 6 minutes..

educational events. For more information

Beginning on page 45,
Hartman introduces the projects
which she delineates by the diffi-
culty of the project.
“Projects to Get You Started”
are for beginning quilters. The
quilts in this section are all
straight lines, squares, or rectan-
gles. If you can sew a straight
line, you can successfully make
one of these quilts.
The next section is called
“Projects for the Confident
Beginner,” and things get a tad
more difficult. But directions are
clear and there are tips, many
tips.
The final section is called
“Intermediate-Level Projects”
and these quilts offer more of a
challenge to the quilter.
One of the things I really liked
about this book is that Hartman
doesn’t ignore the back of the
quilts. Each of the 12 quilt proj-
ects has directions for the quilt
backs. Some are easy, some are
more complicated.
All compliment the beautiful
quilt tops.

Ordnance Brewing from
Boardman, Ore., will be at
Homegrown
Restaurant,
294 Maple St., at 4:30 p.m.
on Friday, June 17, for
another of the restaurant’s
free Oregon beer and wine
tastings.
Ordnance Brewing is an
outlier, a brewery out past
the far edges of Pacific
Northwest population cen-
ters, far from the region’s
corporate breweries and
dense brewer communities
— literally in the middle of
a beer desert.
As such, there are no pre-
determined expectations, no
unspoken rules or formulas
to be held accountable to.
It’s the freedom found in the
wide-open spaces of the
Columbia Plateau and
expansive farmland.
In
this
remoteness,
Ordnance brews freely, with
an innovative spirit, a
farmer’s work ethic and the
creativity of someone living
off the land.
The owners, brewer and
brewery work together for
one common mission: Brew
distinct, honest and simply
enjoyable beer.
Come to the free tasting
and meet the people who
brew it.

OPINION!
