Über diesen Titel

Críticas

January 2016 Bonnie K. Hunter not only supports the reuse, re-purpose and recycle mantra but with her quilt designs she also walks the walk. This is Bonnie's second book of scrappy quilts and in it she explains how to 'quilt green' by sourcing fabric from charity shops, church and school jumble sales, and from your friends and family, in fact anywhere you can find fabric of the right composition. She also offers advice on how to prepare and organise your re-purposed scraps. This book has 13 quilt designs with lots of very clear photographs and illustrations. Bonnie has a very clear style when writing the instructions for each quilt and every chapter includes lots of practical hints and tips, plus snippets about how the quilts were designed. My favourite of the many photographs in the book is of the glorious back of Bonnie's Carolina Christmas Quilt which is made up of orphan blocks combined with scraps of Christmas Fabric, scrappy heaven. -- Popular Patchwork

Reseña del editor

In Scraps & Shirttails, Bonnie Hunter showed us the relationship between quilting green and quilting thrifty. Now she's back for a second round of quilting green in Scraps & Shirttails II. Quilt-makers have always known how to reuse, re-purpose and recycle their stashes to make warm and functional quilts. Today, those concepts take on a whole new meaning for quilters who find it important to help make our world a little greener. This long-awaited sequel continues the art of quilting green with 13 new projects that help you reuse, re-purpose and recycle your scraps into beautiful quilts.
