Ok I give up I love this but I'm on a learning curve how do you get all those little scraps to stay on the quilt... How do you sew that.

Elizabrat, is that ironed down but not sewn? Or is it ironed and then sewn? Do you snip, drop and place, iron and sew???? I don't have a clue but this looks like too much fun! Your's is beautiful, please share...

Absolutely fantastic. I saw a show on snippet art a number of years ago but I don't remember all the details. I'll have to look into it again. Thanks for the book reference. I'm going to Google and see what else I turn up. This looks like fun.
