I have a nice collection of books and some I consider reference books, and some are go to books for fast fun projects! Let me share a group of those with you
Martingale has a series of 'The Big Book of' and I love them! Each is filled with so many ideas and they are GREAT ideas from top designers. Some are super easy, some use all Fat Quarters.. like a WHOLE book of those!
Let me show you a design from the Scrappy Quilts.
This is designed by my friend Pat Wys. I need to make a 'guy' quilt and I love how this one looks. I like that it's patchwork & uses lots of different fabrics but she holds the whole design together so great with color placement.
And it looks complicated with that secondary design, but it's so easy to do! This is in the Scrappy Quilts book
Each book in the series is like this, full of incredible project ideas. I love to just sit and flip through them.
- 77 Patterns in the Big Book of Scrappy Quilts
- 66 Patterns in the Big Book of Fat-Quarter Quilts- with my new fabric shipping to stores, I can't wait to try one of these!
- 56 Patterns in the Big Book of Table Toppers, from runners to big squares ... applique & seasonal. I LOVE changing for the seasons, that is the BEST
- 87 Patterns in the Big Book of Baby Quilts ... My niece is having a baby soon, so I'll be picking one of these to make!
