Product Description Another book of quilting humor- from the author of the ever-popular book That Dorky Homemade Look! Funny woman Lisa Boyer is an expert quilter. And she's determined to enjoy making quilts. In fact, she will not-absolutely will not-let the risk of making a mistake, or a less-than- perfect quilt, keep her from relishing the task! In the 34 chapters of this new book, Lisa covers: - The need for new fabric colors--"blurple," "rorange," and "brellow," to name a few; - The virtues of lumps in a quilt; - How to share your bum fat quarter at a fabric exchange; - How crocheting doilies will drive you back to quilting; - How to cope when your quilts lack depth and dimension. Lisa Boyer is a breeze of fresh air. She brings you back to the pleasure of quilting with her confessions and adventures in Stash Envy!

Hysterical December 28, 2008 She is a wonderful author. I was laughing out loud many times while reading.
Quirky, Fun, very good read! August 9, 2008 I enjoyed Lisa Boyer's first book, That Dorky Homemade Look, so I picked up this sequel for my mom and I to read. I love her sense of humor! The series of articles are very well written and incredibly funny as well as heartwarming. The last chapter in the book, about quilting in different parts of the country is worth the price of the book alone! Excellent read.

Lisa Boyer is so funny. If you are a quilter, this is definitely comic relief that you will enjoy. Every chapter is full of kookie ideas from someone who knows how to have fun. It would make a great gift but don't forget to get yourself a copy too. I also recommend her first book, "That Dorky Homemade Look: Quilting Lessons from a Parallel Universe." You will want to read them more than once.
Stash Envy: And Other Quilting Confessions And Adventures January 9, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was given Lisa's first book by a friend for my birthday. So, when I saw this one, I thought 4 of my quilting buddies might like to enjoy her writing. How right I was. They all loved it. In a world where ALL quilters tend to have "stashes", Stash Management and Fun Reading are a must. Great work, Lisa. Thank You Amazon for making it available to us.

Author Lisa Boyer is an expert quilter and here teaches the quirky, funny side of quilting in a book packed with quilting humor. From sharing bum fat quarters at a fabric exchange to crocheting doilies as a motivator for returning to quilting, STASH ENVY AND OTHER QUILTING CONFESSIONS AND ADVENTURES will be the perfect gift for any avid quilter who 'already has everything'.
