I love the names of the quilts too. I like that there’s a lot of negative space in the quilt designs to FMQ.
Kathy’s quilts look great! I especially like Criss Cross Applesauce, the design is great and I love the name. Thanks for the chance to win a copy of the book.

These fun quilts really excite me! Fat Quarters are so accessible everywhere and matching them up is the hardest part (but most fun), so I’m ready to pick a design!
Kathy’s book would be the cure for all the fat quarters I bought, before I added some of the other pre cuts. How did she come up with such cute quilt names?
Looks like a very handy book to own as a collector of fat quarters!
Gorgeous quilts and with five FQ’s and some yardage..too cool! Great give away.

Wow, the quilts are so cute! I need to use up some scraps so I’m looking at the Confetti quilt as a way to do that.
Oh, how awesome it would be to win this book. I would definitely be using a lot of the fat quarters I’ve been collecting.
Great book.
If the other 11 quilts are as beautiful as these 4 are, it must be a brilliant book.
Looks like a great book. Thanks for the chance.

Cute patterns!
I love the quilts they have in this book. I hope I can win a copy!
This book looks great. Thanks for the chance to win!
My Fat Quarters need this book – really, they do! They’re all just laying around, waiting for a good-looking quilt to come along. From the few quilts I’ve seen from the book so far, my Fat Qs will be lining up ’round the corner wanting to be picked up by a pattern from this book. Thanks for the chance to win a copy.
Given the patterns I’ve seen so far, I definitely want to see what else Kathy’s got in her book (can this book really be her 6th in the series?). I’ve got so many fat quarters, I’m always on the look out for good patterns. It’s difficult tho, when they call for 16-18 or more FQs and you have a beautiful bundle of 5 you want to use. Thanks for the chance to win Kathy’s book.
thanks for the chance to win! Would love the book
Great patterns and colours! All from just 5 fat quarters! Amazing!
I have many scraps handed down to my from my wonderful mother in law and this looks like the book to help me pull them all together.
I could use this book to help use up my stash of fat quarters.
What clever ideas!! just need more time – Don’t we all??
I love the concept of this book and would love to win it…
Wow! Thank you so much for the chance to win!
I have one of Kathy’s books and just finished a quilt top from it on Friday actually. Would love to win this one. Thank you!
