If you’re looking to make very fast, easy, and forgiving quilts, look no further! This Layer 'em Up technique starts with squares, which are layered one on top of another, then sliced, scrambled, and sewn back together again. Could anything be simpler?  I spend quite a bit of time talking about what to look for when selecting fabrics and layering your pieces, to give you the best results. There are many different sized squares you can start with, ranging  from the popular 5" squares (Charm Packs) up to the increasingly popular 10" squares.

This book features three different blocks, with several  quilts in each pattern for inspiration.  As with all my books, there are no specific patterns, but when you realize that all you need for 24 blocks is 24 starting squares, 48 blocks requires 48 starting squares, etc .  Well,  just how much easier can it get?
