Reviews for 15 Minutes of Play – Improvisational Quilts: Made-Fabric Piecing • Traditional Blocks • Scrap Challenges

Victoria recommends setting aside 15 minutes everyday to be creative and to play. Her idea of play is to freely sew to make fabric out of small scraps. Her made-fabric used in traditional blocks gives the blocks a modern look. If the reader has forgotten how to play, the book incudes 11 challenges that are designed to loosen up the creative inner child. ----Stevii Graves, International Quilt Association Journal; May 28, 2013
