    I have fallen in love with the SnW kaleidoscope looking quilt blocks. Then I bought a mirror that shows me what the pattern would be ....Ohhhh...I'm a gonner now!
    I have searched the net and found some resources, but feel this is something I should not try without instructions. Can anyone recommend a good book to buy. I am going to check with my Guild and LQS to see what resources they have for me. Thanks in advance for your help.

    I have the first stack n whack book that came out and I found it very helpful. Once you make one, you can't stop! Have fun!

    The original Stack and Whack book would be the best place to start :D:D:D It does a wonderful job of explaining the blocks, start to finish.
    If you have any questions as you go along, you know we will gladly help :D:D:D

    You can get Magic Stack & Whack Quilts by Bethany S. Reynolds at a discount from www.amazon.com. Excellent book.

    I just went on my Guild's web site and the Stack n Whack lady, Bethany Reynolds, will be at our Guild meeting in November!!! She is also doing a 2-day workshop (which DH just agreed is my Bday present!) and a one day class! I'm beside myself!!
