Holy Moley--I'm going to do this! This book came in today and I browsed through it--and the first thing I read was the 7 step plan to get those scraps under control. :)
I have been shucking scraps like crazy the last couple of years--I donated huge sacks at quilt guild, bags of them to my art teacher daughter for her students' projects--and still--they accumulate!
I was delighted to see that Joan Ford has adopted the same mantra I decided on a couple years ago.
"I will quilt this stash into quilts before I kick the bucket if it's the last thing I do."
"I will not be that poor woman whose lifetime stash is dumped at quilt guild because no one else in the family quilts."
I have quite a few other scrappy quilting books, but this one looks much better thought out with having only 3 sizes of blocks to cut.
And wouldn't you know it--I got back yesterday from a quilting class (Bali Fever) where I bought this really huge and sharp rotary cutter (I've never had a really big mama like this before and whoah does it cut, cut, cut :) And that nice Judy Neimeyer even showed me how to cut curves freehand with it--boy- can I ever cut good now.)
So you can see, when step 2 in this book is "The Cutting workshop"--hey--my big mama rotary is revved and ready :)
The patterns look doable--and I particularly like the 2 tote bags and the table runner--because then you can give them away for gifts.
I also like the fact that these patterns are based on mostly squares instead of strips--I already have tons of books and patterns that will turn strips into scrappy creations--but I like having patterns to turn all those wadded up pieces into something functional. :)
And she tells you up front what you will need to organize them.
