    It's always good to have reference books. Even with all the quilting I have done, I still go back to a couple of my early Eleanor Burns books, that spelled it all out so well.


    Bebe .... May I suggest that you include the author's name and the ISBN#. Publisher's name and if there's a website mentioned, that'd be helpful too.

    For those who want to source it, it will help.

    I used one of those books when I taught myself to quilt. I think it was "Teach Yourself to Quilt".

    when I learned to quilt 11 years, we used this book, it is by Lois Smith. They had lessons that we used each week, I loved it and made a sampler. I still love samler quilts. I think Elenor Burns books are also great lesson books. They are great.
