The copy I read of this was a paperback from the local library, with lots of pictures, diagrams, and pattern pieces in an envelope attached to the back cover. I looked at it because I am in an online quilting course where one of the teachers has also written a book on quilting with Liberty of London Fabrics.

This book is more general, with nine quilt projects, accessories from handerkerchiefs to bags and device cases, and clothes (ties, dresses for children and adults, trousers, and t-shirt). The author is clearly a big fan of these fabrics but also has suggestions for using them along with other fabrics in quilting.
