Scrap Quilting with Alex Anderson
Hi there peoples!!! As you know I'm a lucky duck when it comes to friends and having Alex Anderson as a friend is lucky for both me and you today !! Alex has a new book out and it's fantastic.
I love scrap quilts, and Alex helps you develop a strategy for fabric selection, design and construction. She offers advice on the process and she's got a handful of great projects to try your hand at. Last but not least is a wonderful gallery of vintage and modern day scrap quilts for inspiration.
My personal favorite, today anyway, is Seeing Stars. I love stars but what grabs me most about this is the little bits of dots that appear here and there. I would never have thought of that, but now I'm just nuts for it! Of course Alex being Alex she's given me two signed copies of Scrap Quilting to give away.. so please leave a comment for a chance to be entered to win! And if you can't wait you can order one here, or even pick one up at Alden Lane at Quilting in the Garden!
Ok, that's it for this week! Happy weekending! xo
p.s. I'll draw a name next week, so remember to leave a comment!

I love scrap quilts and am always on the look out for great patterns that I can use some of my scraps to make. I have quite a collection of scraps because I can't seem to throw any out if they seem to be a usable size.

As a lover of fabrics, I can't stand to throw away any piece that could somehow be used in another creation--and I love Alex and her creativity....

I love working with scraps and I do have a lot of them to work with so this book should be a great scrap buster and an excuse to buy more fabric, the plus side is that I love the cheerful Alex and her way of teaching that is so doable for any skill level.
Looks like a great book. I just love scrappy quilts. Thank so much for the chance to win.
