I bought this book because of the eye-catching quilt on the cover. Since then, I have finished piecing that quilt and am thrilled with it. The concept is so simple and the effect is so stunning!

The designs all use small rectangular pieces - which really does mean that you get to use some of the scraps left in your stash. On the down side, for some of the quilts you really do need a lot of different fabrics. Also, don't even think about it if you haven't got a rotary cutter, my quilt has over 1,500 rectangles measuring 2" by 3.5".

This book has something for patchworkers of all levels, the piecing is quite easy and the instructions are good, but the design opportunities are endless ...

5.0 out of 5 stars successful scrap quilts, 10 Aug 2002

By A Customer

This is a super book for those quilters that love scrap quilts.The photographs of the quilts are excellent. There are lots of different quilts , with easy to understand instructions.The most amazing thing about these quilts is that they are all made from small rectangles in various different combinations. The way that the rectangles are put together , and the types of fabrics used, make the finished quilts stand out from other scrap quilts that I have seen. This book inspired me , and I want to make all the quilts featured. This is going to take quite some time!
