Another book sent to me by the publishers- and this one appeals to the lazy and maths-shy side of me! The book is ideal for those of us that like to just get stuck in and make, without having to do a huge amount of prep work or worry about perfect seam allowances.
This book has 13 projects- not just quilts- there’s a tablerunner, tote bag, placemats (above) etc made from flip blocks or stack and slash blocks. If you like wonky quilts and modern patchwork, this could be a nice book for you. Here’s some photos of my favourite pages…

Great book! I think it would be at the top of my list followed by Sew Wild!
I would love to win your copy!
I love the look of that book….I did see Fresh from the Clothesline there, tho. I would probably add that to my shelf if I had a few dollars extra this month. LOL
I hope this counts…..I added your book giveaway to my Facebook page! Here is a linkie: http://www.facebook.com/pages/OleFrogEyes-Virtual-Design-Wall-for-Quilters/221149167928848
Thanks for the chance to win!
Sweet needle felts looks like a book I could get inspiration from! Love the look of this quilt book too!
I thought I had you liked on Facebook already, oh well, I do now!
Not on twitter but I posted the link on my Facebook page!
This sounds like the perfect book for those of us who are math challenged, I also really like Quilted Bags With Style.
I liked you on FB.
Liked you on facebook, and i would looooove Amy Butler’s Style Stitches book from RUCraft!
I’m currently learning how to sew and quilt, so I think Sewing Machine Basics would be a good book for me. Thanks for giveaway!
Oh my goodness the tribulations ive been through to leave a comment lol Totally worth the effort the book looks great and will hopefully inspire me to try quilting. I’ve retweeted you too x
Done all 3! Left a comment on your Facebook page, Twitter handle @Fanofjc, and I really, really, really want the book “Thread Painting”
I think (other than Carefree Quilts) my fave book at RUCraft is 101 great ways to sew a metre- as when i see fabrics i like i often just buy a metre, and then realise its either not quite enough for big projects, and too much for little projects! But much anticipated book is Little Stitches from Aneela Hoey, really looking forward to that one too!!
And i’ve now found you on Facebook and liked your page, another great way to stay up to date (although i do check in every day because i’m nosey!).
have liked you on facebook and tweeted as @beadercollie 🙂
The quilting book on the top of my list is : Fat Quarterly Shape Workshop for Quilters: 60 Blocks + a Dozen Quilts and Projects! by Katy Jones, Brioni Greenberg, Tacha Bruecher and John Q. Adams
