TRICIA MALONEY
Here’s Tricia’s new book!
Quilts in the book are designed for the beginner to intermediate quilter. All of the projects use precuts (yeah, you can buy them, but I suggest you make your own precuts for your own unique quilt using Tricia’s patterns). There are 16+ projects in the book ranging from placemats and table runners-up to big bed quilts (which I love). Other features include alternate sizes, color options/ideas for most quilts, a little bit of color theory (which Tricia actually teaches), and a bonus pillow project!
Take a look at just a few of the projects from the book . . .
The perfect companion to your precuts
If time is money, now you can save both with fresh patterns designed specifically for precut fabric collections. With the fabric prep out of the way, you’ll turn your stashed precuts into 16 eye-catching quilts and smaller projects you can sew in a weekend. From wallhangings to throws, pillows, table toppers, placemats, and quilts for every bed in your home, these projects are so fast they practically make themselves!
• Throw a precut party! 16 quilt projects especially for layer cakes, charms, precut strips, fat quarters, and half-yard bundles
• Save hours choosing and cutting fabrics when you quickly stitch precut quilts, placemats, and more
• Get right to the fun of quiltmaking with beginner-friendly patterns and mix up your palette with recommended colors

BLOCK GENIUS: 201 PIECED BLOCKS WITH NO MATH CHARTS
In one volume, quilters will find 201 classic blocks that they can use to hone their sewing skills, in block exchanges or to create wonderful block sampler quilts. In this impressive collection, the author organizes the blocks in groups of 2 × 2, 3 × 3, 4 × 4, and 6 × 6 grids with instructions and math provided for 6-, 9- and 12-inch blocks.
This book is a block library that will be quilters go-to source for reference, inspiration and instruction. With the exception of a few that were designed by the author, the block designs are all nearly 100 years old. Some designs are still sewn to this day, but many deserve new recognition and use by today s quilters.
A browser s delight: the four-color photography provides color and fabric-choice inspiration to quilters, and each block s evocative name recalls quilting s rich history.
Clear instructions and expert advice: exploded diagrams of each block make construction a snap without special rulers. Tips on fabric selection, color choice, cutting pressing and sewing.
No math: The author provides accurate dimensions for each cut so that quilters can easily size their blocks for 6-, 9- or 12-inches.

MARCIA HOHN
Marcia Hohn’s Quilter’s Cache website has been my g0-t0 place for years to find inspiration or research on old and new quilt blocks alike. It’s a fun site to get lost in as you surf and click from block to block to block to block and allow your imagination to soar. There’s a lot here, and it’s free (support her sponsors is all any quilter can ask….) Here’s the link:
