by Gudrun Erla

Overview

Bust your stash with 12 strip quilts, perfect for those larger pieces of leftover fabric that you aren’t quite sure how to use. Learn how to cut, sort, store, and sew 2 1/2" strips to make a variety of quilts in two or more sizes. Confidently pair fabric prints, using three no-fail strategies: controlled colorway, distinct blocks, or scrap crazies! Whatever your approach, you’ll love stripping along with the popular pattern and fabric designer behind GE Designs. Gudrun Erla’s quick yet impressive patterns only look complicated. Complete with helpful charts and illustrations, everything from fabric selection to block construction is made clear and simple, even for beginners.

About the Author

Gudrun Erla, the designer and owner of GE Designs, was born and raised in Iceland. She started quilting at the age of 23 and became immediately addicted to it. After owning and running quilt shops in her home country and designing patterns alongside it, a career move brought the family to Minnesota in 2003. Since then, Gudrun has been designing full time and publishing patterns and books under GE Designs. Her numerous strip patterns and books have been popular among quiltmakers who want to make fresh-looking quilts from their collection of strips.

Editorial Reviews

Gudrun, GE Designs, has put together a book of 12 quilts made from 2.5 inch strips. There are modern and traditional designs included in the book which are made from precut rolls and leftovers. These projects are a great way to reduce your stash. All the quilts have multiple size options–a great feature! I recommend multiple size options as a requirement for all quilt patterns.
