When a charm pack catches your eye, it's so tempting to buy that little bundle of fabric whether or not you have a project in mind. If your precut fabrics are piling up, put them to good use with the ideas inside Precuts Pizzazz from Leisure Arts. This book contains 12 patterns that are tailor-made for precuts.

Precuts Pizzazz is loaded with projects that let your carefully curated precuts shine! Whether you want to make a quilt, pillow, table runner, or place mat, there is a pattern in this book for you. Take a weekend to pull together the Strip Dash Runner, which is a fabulous stash-buster.

Go bold with the Summer Twist pattern, or soften your bedroom's color scheme with the pastels of the Trellised Garden quilt, a fat quarter project. This gorgeous floral quilt is my favorite of the collection, but there are plenty of other options including:

Reversible Around the World Runner
Windows
Progression
Cracked Ice (perfect for winter)
Bird's Eye View
Apple of My Eye (customizable for a little girl's room)
Square It Up
Land & Sea Bargello Place Mats (a super quick strip project)

Feel free to experiment with motifs, color schemes, and techniques. Precuts Pizzazz gives you the tools you need to modify these designs in any way you choose. Be sure to check out the tips in the back of the book to make these simple projects even easier. Precuts Pizzazz is a great excuse to raid your fabric stash and beautify your home.
