Moda All-Stars Mini Marvels by Lissa Alexander

The range of designers means there’s genuinely something for every skill level, and I’ve already pulled out my scrap bin twice this week. Even the more intricate ones are broken down so clearly that nothing feels out of reach.

The step-by-step diagrams for the more intricate patterns finally made mini-quilts feel approachable instead of intimidating. I've already finished two projects from the book, both came out looking polished and perfectly used up my odd leftover strips.

Finally, a book that actually puts my overflowing scrap bin to good use. The variety of difficulty across the 15 patterns is perfect, letting me pick something simple for a quick sew or challenge myself with an intricate block. I’ve already pulled fabric for three projects.
