Good book for quilting desings
I've been piecing quilt tops for awhile, but would like to quilt small quilts (lap size or smaller) on my sewing machine. I don't know what designs to use or how to do it. Can you suggest a good book or resource on some simple beginner level designs I can use? I've done simple stippling, but would like other choices. I have a walking foot and quilting/darning foot.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I found this book very helpful: Free-motion machine quilting : from practice to perfection, troubleshooting guide, 50+ designs by Don Linn. I've been reading but haven't had the time or the courage to try it.

Also if you didn't see this on Leah Day's website she is having a quilt along http://freemotionquilting.blogspot.c...w-project.html
also go to You Tube and look up free motion quilting, there are heaps of videos out there
