    I know of a site that lists books for sale; out of print etc. Is this the one you meant? http://www.abebooks.com/

    Here is what I did. I went to their home page. I entered E. Burns name and cot the following page.

    http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?sts=t&an=Eleanor+Burns&y=9&x=74

    Then I used the empty search box and put in "quilt books" and that opened a selection of books they have available.

    I also use this method with www.half.com which is my favorite place to buy books. When all else fails I use Abebooks, Alibris and then Bookfinders

    Or you can do a search and "google" used books.

    I hope you find what you are looking for.

    I believe many prayers are being said for your state in the wake of that terrible storm. Peace be with you.

    When I am looking for a used or out-of-print quilting book, I always go to Amazon.com. They list for themselves as well as other distributors and the $ listed for each in new or used condition. I am sure I have seen Abe books there. Suzanne
