Go figure---the one weekend I did not tape nor watch Sewing With Nancy and Fons/Porter is the weekend I should have! No quilting has been on today so I imagine our PBS is doing lengthy shows for raising funds.
By the way, your avatar sure does catch the pet of yours in flight. Great shot!

I made 12 "Stack The Deck" crazy quilts about 5 yrs ago for my family. They are super easy. Each person got different "themed" fabrics and they have been very well used and loved. I saw them first on Alex Anderson's show when she was still on HGTV and ordered the book. Lots of fun, easy quilt ideas in that book.

I remember seeing this on her show too...I want to try it sometime. I think she has a video on her site of it.

i made a stained class quilt using this method yrs ago. using a lot of soft pastel batiks, and QAYG. turned out real nice. that was when i was in a mode of 'the next thing i do, has to be something i have never done before'. wanted to make my own bias tape. i'm out of that now.
