Kelly Young of My Quilt Infatuation recently wrote a book - Stash Statement. Then she sent me an email. And I burst into a song...
The email was fantastic.
The email was fantastic.
When I received it, I was ecstatic.
Stash Statement Quilts was on its way
Would I like to play?
I jumped in with both feet.
With rhyme and reason, excitement and anticipation, I have to tell you that today is the day when the Blog Hop for Stash Statement begins.
The book is full of eye-candy, cool techniques and fabulous patterns. I am already knee-deep in my scraps, applying Kelly's techniques and turning chaos into order.
Every week, two quilters will showcase one quilt from the book. Here is the entire line-up. You don't want to miss it.

Be sure to check Kelly's blog because she is giving away two copies of the book. I will be sharing with all my favorite linky parties. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Very cool! ( or hot - since your colors are reds and oranges!)
ReplyDelete"Turning chaos into order" is such a perfect way of putting it! Your blocks are gorgeous and will turn into a masterpiece, for sure! Your photos make me want to dig into my scrap bins and do the same. I'll be following along! Congrats!

ReplyDeleteLooks like playtime to me! I cannot wait to see what you are going to come up with! Kelly's book is amazing and its perfect for those who are a little afraid of improv!
ReplyDeleteI"m all about scrappy quilts---especially since most all my fabric is given to me when someone cleans their stash, or I buy at yard sales, second hand shops and estate sales.
ReplyDeleteThose blocks look fab. I'll be following the hop - it's so helpful to see inspirational ways to use scraps :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your little rhyme! I can't wait to see your version of Kelly's quilt :)
ReplyDeleteLove seeing these blocks with your “trademark” happy scraps!
ReplyDeleteOh how wonderful, I love the idea of improv using up my scraps and 'turning chaos into order', love that quote! Now I'm off to check it all out, I'll look forward to seeing your contribution.
