Scrappy Wonky Quilt Serendipity

Do you believe in serendipity?

Serendipity is a fortunate coincidence, and that’s what the publication of Scrappy Wonky Quilt Block Extravaganza (by Shannon Roudhán and Jason Bowlsby, C&T Publishing) is for me.

I’ve been working on cleaning out my fabric pantry and whittling down some of the scraps and smaller pieces in the studio. So when I was given the opportunity to check out an advance copy of Scrappy Wonky Quilt Block Extravanza, of course I said an enthusiastic “YES!” and immediately started sorting through the scrap pile.

With a dozen quilt blocks to choose from, plus an assortment of 13 projects to make, you can create a BUNCH of different projects without getting bored. I chose to start with a wonky nine-patch pillow…and had so much fun that I made extra blocks so I can try more projects later.

I appreciated the conversational yet instructional tone of the text, as well as the well-designed graphics and thorough instructions. If you’re new to improvisational piecing, this book is a terrific place to start! Shannon and Jason make it clear that “wonky” doesn’t mean “sloppy,” so they provide plenty of tips that even the most experienced quilters will find helpful.
