Monique Dillard

Waste no fabric. Put every inch of your favorite fat quarters to work with clever shortcuts and streamlined techniques. Put a pair of light fabrics with a pair of dark fabrics and you're ready to go! Multiple quilt sizes are included for each project, from a lap quilt to a king-sized bed quilt. Eleven patterns for less than $1.50 each! What makes this fat-quarter book different is the emphasis on using every last bit of each piece of fabric. From block to backing to binding, nothing is wasted. Each project includes Monique's "clever shortcuts," as well as streamlined techniques for easy piecing. Each pair of blocks creates interesting secondary patterns when they're combined to reveal a more complex look. You'll get terrific results stitching up these traditional designs into cherished everyday quilts.
