Absolutely hilarious! I started reading this book aloud at our mini-group meeting and we finally had to give up on sewing because we were laughing so hard that we couldn't see our stitching any more. The chapter "Quilt, Interrupted" needs to be framed and hung up in my sewing room! Highly recommended for anyone who sews.

Not being a quilter I had my doubts after receiving this book as a gift, but this delightful book had me hooked after the first paragraph. It is one of those books you never want to end.

Stash Envy is a collection of stories that are light and fun, and just bring a smile to your face. I even found myself laughing out loud. It just makes you feel good.

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'.

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.

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.

She is a wonderful author. I was laughing out loud many times while reading.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was my first by this author. I love quilting and could appreciate the humor and frustrations of each chapter. Very fun and fast read.

A group of us use Stash Envy as a reflection before meetings. One group member reads a chapter aloud to all of us. We love the book and enjoy the humor the author brings to quilting.

I hope she liked it. Gave as a gift exchange at a quilt group.
