Heidi Staples began her sewing blog, Fabric Mutt, in December 2011 and published her first book, Sew Organized for the Busy Girl, in March 2015. In 2016, she became a fabric designer for Penny Rose Fabrics/Riley Blake Designs. Staples holds a B.A. in Liberal Arts with an English concentration, as well as an M.A. in Teaching. After spending most of her life in Southern California, she moved to the Texas hill country in the summer of 2015, where she now sews, designs patterns and fabric, home-schools her daughters, and enjoys making beautiful things.

Set in three sections Patchwork USA is a project book with something for sewists of all skill levels. The 'Day Trips' section are simple projects, Pincushions, Pillows and I absolutely loved the Postcard Kit project.  All these are easy projects everyone can enjoy making and each one takes a small amount of time. The Weekend Getaways and the Summer Vacation projects take a little longer to complete and are larger... Bags, zipper pouches and even a quilt are included.What is great about this book, is the enormous wealth of sewing information given. Advice on fabric choices and cutting, colour scheme help and a handy tool kit guide are invaluable to every stitcher. I adored the Share the Journey section.  It gives ideas on different ways to gift your projects and other ways that they can be used. There are a couple of recipes and a music playlist to help make your sewing 'vacation' a pleasant and fun experience.I will be using this book to enjoy a fun afternoon sewing with my God-Daughter. The projects are fun and for a crafty day of sewing and developing new skills it is just perfect.
