Customer Reviews

A practical and wonderful book

Page after page of beautifully photographed quilts makes this book a delicious treat. I particularly like the fact that the book offers a wide variety of doable patterns and even offers tips to make the assembly process even easier. I love to dream about my next project and this book inspires creativity and sweet dreams that really will end in success.

Big Book of Scrap Quilts

Great patterns and lots of good ideas for scrap quilts. I read the book before I bought it and that is why I purchased it. I dont usually buy a book unless it has a number of patterns that I like and this one had a lot.

This is an excellent book and a must for all quilt lovers and I am glad I got it for a really good price.

Big Book of Scrap Quilts

I am always looking for a way to use up pieces of material left over from other projects. This book shows me many ways of working up my leftovers. I prefer to call them leftovers instead of scraps. Scraps are something that you usually throw away while leftovers you put away for another meal. There are many patterns for everyone. Some simple and some more complex. It is a book that I can look at many times and hopefully use up some of my leftover stash.

Great book, great pictures of the quilts

There are so many beautiful scrap quilts in this book, all with the patterns and instructions, and two pictures of most of the quilts - flat and on the bed, which makes them easier to imagine real. They are all block quilts, wall and bed size, some more modern, some classics, some applique.

Great for stashbusting

Traditional patterns, and some new ideas, all making use of scraps you can't bear to part with, or fabric lengths you forgot about. I love that most projects show several color-ways to spark creative possibilities. And I very much love that the instructions offer both traditional methods and modern "speed" methods. If you're a scrappy quilt fan, this is an absolute must-have!
