Scraptherapy Scraps Plus One!: New Patterns to Quilt Through Your Stash with Ease

by Joan Ford

Book Overview

'In my mind, it makes more sense to start with the scraps, cutting them up following a simple plan. Then you are ready to select and sew the scrap pieces into controlled scrappy projects.'
