Picture Patchwork
Quilters are forever looking for dynamic designs, especially ones that are both simple and eye-catching. All 15 featured Picture Patchwork designs can be made with simple squares -- the most basic shape of all, but the author has added some additional touches (optional) with the nine-patch, half-squares, and sawtooth, plus a few appliqu矇 flourishes. In creating these novelty quilts, Jo Ann took her inspiration from cross-stitch graphs using a pixelated approach, which follows charts for color and placement. These are ideal for using pre-cuts (charms and mini-charms) as well as stash fabrics, and nothing will keep quilters of all skill levels from tackling any of the designs. They can even sprinkle in some of their own creativity if desired. Depending on the fabric a quilter chooses these charted designs can take on a modern spin or be utterly traditional. Picture Patchwork will have you looking at the endless supply of cross-stitch grids through a quilter's eye and serves as a self-purchase or gift title for all levels of quilting enthusiasts.

Lexy and Kaylee's Advanced Sudoku for Adults and Teens Volume Three
From the creators of Lexy and Kaylee's Canine Coloring Book for Children series now have put together an activity book for Adults and Teens. Inside there are 52 advanced 16x16 Sudoku Puzzles in an easy to carry 6 x 9 format. Great for taking with you on plane and train rides or to sit at the beach or by the pool.Sudoku, a number puzzle that has become a global phenomenon, has a history that can be traced back to several roots.Early Beginnings: The concept of Sudoku is often linked to the 18th-century Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler. He developed a puzzle known as "Latin Squares," where each number or symbol appeared once in each row and column. However, these Latin Squares did not have the additional constraint of Sudoku's sub-grids.20th Century Developments: In the late 19th century, puzzles resembling Sudoku started appearing in French newspapers. These puzzles, created by Howard Garns, an American architect and freelance puzzle constructor, are often considered the precursors to modern Sudoku. Garns' puzzles were first published in 1979 in Dell Magazines under the name "Number Place."Modern Sudoku: The modern version of Sudoku as we know it was popularized in Japan. In 1984, the puzzle was introduced by the Japanese puzzle company Nikoli, which named it "Sudoku," a short form of a Japanese phrase meaning "the digits must remain single." Nikoli made a few important modifications, including the introduction of symmetrical grids and the reduction of clues, which increased the puzzle's complexity and appeal.Global Popularity: Sudoku's global popularity surged in the early 2000s. Wayne Gould, a retired Hong Kong judge, discovered the puzzle in a Japanese bookstore and developed a computer program to generate Sudoku puzzles. He persuaded major newspapers like The Times in the UK to publish these puzzles, starting in 2004. This sparked a worldwide Sudoku craze, with the puzzle appearing in newspapers, books, and online platforms across the globe.Present Day: Today, Sudoku remains a beloved pastime for millions. It has various forms and difficulty levels and is featured in international competitions. It has inspired numerous spin-offs and variations, cementing its place as a staple of modern puzzle games.

Bonsai Foundations
Bonsai Foundations explores both the aesthetic and horticultural knowledge which is essential to the successful cultivation and stylistic development of bonsai. The Japanese bonsai aesthetic, which is widely followed but not well described in the west, is analysed and described in terms of goal oriented design principles. Alternative models and approaches to a tree's styling are discussed. Structural flaws are described along with causes and means for resolution. Step by step guides are provided for a variety of development paths and techniques, like pruning, layering and grafting. Detailed explanations are offered on how trees grow, the formulation and testing of successful potting media and demystifying fertilizers. The aesthetic design principles form the basis for suggested objective judging criteria. The book is suitable for all experience levels, bringing objectivity to everyday management activities as well as offering new ways to look at aesthetics and styling outside the Japanese environment.
