No patterns here, but definitely a plan! Explore the freeing power of improvised piecing with Nicholas Ball in his first book, Inspiring Improv. Learn his step-by-step technique-based process to explore six fundamental piecing structures. Practice how to stitch fabric together in an improvisational manner to create blocks or sections before using them to sew unique quilts all your own. Improv piecing doesn't have to mean chaotic end results. Look to the eight original projects included to see how to create sophisticated quilts with structure focusing on repeating blocks or large-scale scrappy designs. Follow along as Nicholas walks you through his original inspiration and follow his plan through to finished pieces, as he discusses which combination of his core piecing methods he used, and how to achieve showstopping, exciting work. From simple strip piecing through to complex circles and rings, you will be eager to experiment with making slabs, gentle curves, insets, triangles and even 9-patch and Log Cabin stacks. In no time, you'll be using them as a stepping stone to sewing original full-sized improvisational designs.

A mob wife opens a London restaurant, serving a full banquet of mayhem and violence in this “riotously good read” by the author of Acid Casuals (Observer). They’re opening a new restaurant in London’s posh SoHo district. Susan Ball, a mob wife turned restaurateur, is funding the joint with money she stole from her notorious husband, Frank ‘Ballistic’ Ball. The cook is a former celebrity chef whose insatiable perversions were too hot for TV. And as for the Maitre D, his drug-fueled spiritual journey in Goa has certainly made him more unique, but it hasn’t made him any more trustworthy. This might sound like a recipe for disaster—but that’s just the first course. ‘This black comedy of modern bad manners aims at outrage and hits the bull’s eye every time . . . A must-read” —Val McDermid
