Hey there, friends! I am so happy that today I get to give you a little overview of the final sections of my new book, Scrappy Improv Quilting. The third section of the book is titled Seasonal Sensations and contains six adorable little seasonal quilts.
Remember when I said that this book was written so that even a novice quilter would be successful? Well, once you peruse the 22 mini quilt projects contained in Scrappy Improv Quilting, you're not left alone to "quilt and bind as desired." Sure, if you're experienced, you may not need the guidance for turning your quilt top into a finished mini quilt, but if you need it, it's there for you in the final section of the book. In Finishing Your Quilt, you'll find full instructions for choosing batting, basting, quilting options, and binding. There are even detailed steps for turning your mini quilt into a pillow, and for sewing a hanging sleeve!
Well, there you have it, friends! For the past couple of weeks, I've given you a quick overview of everything Scrappy Improv Quilting has to offer, so I hope you're ready to start seeing the individual projects NEXT WEEK! I've been getting sneak peeks from these amazing quilters, and I promise you're in for lots of eye-candy.
Beginning next Monday (9/13), the blog tour will feature four projects each week- two on Monday, and two on Wednesday.
And beginning this week, and for the duration of the blog tour, NTT will be posted on Thursday mornings, rather than the usual Wednesday evening, just to make sure that the posts don't get crowded.

The longer I quilt the more I realize how little I know! Love hearing your tips and tales. Could you also share how you get so much done in such short amounts of time! And so beautiful, I want it all! Thanks!
