Kelly Young’s Stash Statement shows quilters how to use their scraps and offers 15 quilt patterns using scraps, grouped as Play with Color, Grab and Sew, and Improv in the Background.
Kelly starts with the basics, the tools and techniques used for scrap quilting, with lots of illustrations to walk you through the process. She sews the scraps to build larger panels or strips which then are trimmed to the block sizes needed in the patterns.
The cover quilt, Grand Bazaar, is an example of Play with Color and how you can build blocks from scraps of one color. Grab and Go patterns use random scraps of different colors. An example is Take Flight, the angel wings quilt shown on the bottom left of the back cover. Improv in the Background quilts uses scraps in one color family as the background for single color blocks, as seen in the Bloom Chicka Boom quilt on the lower right of the back cover.
The quilt patterns are varied enough that you will surely find something you want to make. I am in love with Beach Retreat with it’s aqua and sand colored scrap blocks on white. But once you learn the technique, the possibilities are endless!
