Some
reviews of the book
From the
November/December Kentucky Heritage Quilt Society Newsletter:
Combing Through Your Scraps in the newest book by KHQS member
Karen Combs, of Columbia, Tennessee. While quilters can never have too
much fabric, occasionally there is a need to organize and even "weed
out" some of the scraps. Karen offers an answer to all those scraps -
fabulous scrap quilts made by focusing on color value rather than color
or texture. Leftover, and less lovely fabrics that reside in everyone's
stash can be magically transformed into eye-catching designs by using
only light and dark basic Nine-Patch and Split Nine-Patch blocks. Dozens
of design possibilities and eighteen projects are offered in this
88-page softcover book.

5 stars:
This book not only stirs the imagination for scrap quilters, but
also is refreshingly informative in a way to
benefit the beginner and aid the intermediate with helpful
technique and designing hints. I highly recommend this book for
the quilter and for those buying gifts for
quilters!
