Quilt shops and quilters love fat quarters! Many shops package groups of fat quarters together by theme and in complementary colors, making them quite attractive to buy, give, and trade. But what do you do with them? The authors' answer is a collection of delightful, traditional quilt patterns, all made from fat quarters. Quilters love fat quarters because they provide a lot of variety at an economical price. Quilt shops love fat quarters because they are great for promotional purposes and they sell fabrics. To help the shops and the quilters, the authors have included a teachers' guide to developing classes for fat quarter projects.
