Scrap Quilts

I love this book because Judy Martin does such a great job of making it easy. Her pattern pieces are precise and that makes for a perfect quilt when you finish. She incorporates stars in many of the patterns, and that is something I love too.


Inspirational

This book has so many ideas I almost don't know where to start. Good instruction and great pictures.

Scraps

This is an absolutely wonderful book as most of Judy Martin's are. So many ideas to us scraps from. Easy to understand. A favorite of mine.






Scrap Fun

Lots of fun ideas and each quilt is described in detail for several sizes, wall - twin - & queen; and color combinations. I enjoyed the "shadow" effect on the blocks and the alternate view for colors (warm to cool). It also has the instructions and materials needed as a list that can be checked off as they are bought. I bought this book on a whim and was pleased with the informative way it was put together. However, I felt that only a couple of these quilts were particularly good for using up scrap material.

clearest instructions I have seen in any book

With so many colourful unit illustrations showing how to assemble the quilts accurately, and the templates the clearest I have come across. this a book for beginner and expert alike. A dream to read and inspirational to use. 10 out of 10.


reviews: page 1, 2, 3



Scraps features 16 new and original Judy Martin designs. Every quilt is presented in 3 sizes so you can make the design you like in the size you want. You are given your choice of accurate rotary cutting instructions or templates. Fat quarter requirements and yardage are listed for every quilt in every size. Color diagrams show piecing details. And every pattern is rated for ease of cutting, ease of sewing, and ease of thinking.

Perhaps the greatest challenge with Scraps is in deciding which quilt to make first! Several quilts feature shadows and other dimensional effects that make patches appear to float over the surface of the quilt. You?ll find an abundance of stars, including a magnificent Lone Star. In addition you?ll see a Log Cabin, a Wedding Ring variation (with no curves!), an exotic Nine-Patch, a beautiful flower quilt, and much more.

Scraps is more than just patterns. The upfront material draws upon Judy?s 37 years of making quilts from scraps. She offers basic quiltmaking information plus scrap quilt cutting strategies, techniques for sewing with scraps, suggestions for building and organizing your stash, and ideas for working with color and style in scraps.

Whether you?re looking for a pattern that is clearly simple, surprisingly easy, or stunningly beautiful, your next quilt should be made from Scraps.
