Easy Quilts Spring 2019

With holiday activities behind you, perhaps it’s time for a little spring cleaning.

If you simply cannot part with bits of fabric left behind from other projects, or have smaller cuts you’re longing to use up, this issue of Easy Quilts is especially for you! We’ve gathered an array of small projects and designs perfect for clearing out your fabric stash.

You’ll find the Strawberry Swirl and Mad for Plaid table runners perfect for dressing up a spring table. Go mini with Waste Not and the whimsical Ribbit, Ribbit—two quilts you can make in a jiffy. Turn small scraps of color into Pineapple Suite. Use up those leftover 2-1/2″ strips in Village Villas or transform your collection of gorgeous batik fat quarters into Trickling Terraces.

Small projects are ideal for experimenting with new techniques. Why not give fusible appliqué a try with Dutch Treat. Follow our Sew Easy step-by-step lesson for the Split Point units used in Spring to Life.

And there’s so much more!

So, gather your fabric stash—it’s time we spruce things up!
