Stash Statement: Make the Most of Your Fabrics with Easy Improv Quilts -- Kelly Young, Paperback

Don't throw your fabric scraps away! Kelly Young will teach you how to make structured improvisational quilts. She starts by blending the old concept of an improv quilt with a newer structured way to do it with tips and techniques on how to get started, how to prepare your fabrics and choose which method you would like to use--panel, strip, or block. Then she offers three ways to organize your quilt: by color, grabbing and sewing, and creating your improv as the background. Projects include Grand Bazaar, Precarious, Detour, Bloom Chicka Boom, Regatta and more! Perfect for confident beginners and experienced quilters.

About the Author
Kelly Young is a quilter, author of Stash Statement and Scrappy Improv Quilting, pattern designer, and quilt teacher. A former elementary teacher who has been making quilts for over 20 years, Kelly traded her classroom full of children for a classroom full of quilters and began traveling to teach and design patterns full-time in 2015. With a passion for making scrappy quilts, she tries to pack as many fabrics as possible into her designs. She loves blending carefree improv piecing with the comfortable structure of a quilt pattern, and this led her to further explore the improv technique. As a former teacher, Kelly enjoys encouraging quilters to try new skills, building their confidence, and helping them have fun in the process! Kelly lives in Germantown, Tennessee where she is a member of the Memphis Area Modern Quilt Guild.
