According to the Quilting in America 2014 Study, there are more than 16 million active quilters in the U.S., and the average quilting household expenditure has increased 36% since 2010. Quilting in the U.S. is a $3.7 billion industry. Scraps are popular. Scrap quilt patterns are among the most popular. Scrap quilts allow a quilter to use up bits of fabric in their stash, so they are economical; but they also provide quilters with a challenge of combining fabrics into a beautiful quilt.
