Surprise yourself with the amazing variety of one-patch quilts! Scrappy is the style and stunning is the look. With just one or two simple shapes and a stash of fabric, you're on your way to a modern version of a classic quilt. There are three dozen templates to choose from. Bring back the nostalgic experience of sleeping underneath a handmade scrap quilt. Pull scraps from your stash and trade with your friends so that every patch is different. The patterns are arranged by degree of sewing difficulty and include a number from the treasured Kansas City Star series.
