Does anyone have the "Knockout Blocks and Sampler Quilts" book by Judy Martin? Or know where I can find one at a reasonable price?

Cheapest price I could find is 40.52. It is OOP hence the high prices. Wish I had one to sell!

Who in their right mind would pay that for a quilting book? No book is worth that and that gal should be ashamed for asking that much for it.

it's whatever the market will bear. If people are willing to pay it I would sell it at that price too.

There is a copy in the regional library in New Bern NC - perhaps your library could get it on interlibrary loan?
