Book Description
Discover an innovative approach to creating fantastic scrap quilts, using one simple four patch block made up of half-square triangles.

Learn how to use scraps in a whole new way with:

· 15 step-by-step quilt projects, plus more than 30 full-color photographs of completed scrap quilts for inspiration

· Methods for using two color families, instead of just light and dark fabrics, to add a new dimension to traditional scrap quilts

· Tips for repeating, reversing, and rotating blocks for countless design possibilities
