Keepsake Quilting Stripology Mixology 2 book — precut quilt patterns for 10", 5", 2½" & 1½" with full-colour instructions

Stripology Mixology 2 Book is an 84-page pattern and technique collection that teaches you how to turn 10", 5", 2½" and 1½" precuts into 13 original quilts using Stripology rulers or standard rulers.
