    what is the name of her book? i would be interested in finding it- my daughter has requested a celtic quilt...over a year ago- sooner or later i should start one :thumbup:
    Beth Ann Williams book is called "Celtic Quilts A new look for ancient designs" I also have "More Celtic Quilting" by Gail Lawther. Both books have many designs that can be Appliqued, quilted, embroidered or machine stitched. Excellent book I use it over and over again.

    This is a link to a pic of one of my Celtic quilts from Beth Ann Williams book. Can't post pics at the moment.

    Thanks so much for all the suggestions. I have looked at books by both Beth Ann Williams and Gail Lawther however I have not purchased them as I can't really tell what information is in them. Can you please let me know if they have quilt instructions or just instructions for celtic designs?

    This is the official website for BEth Ann Williams. Her book 'Celtic Quilts' has patterns for quilts in it. Gail's books have designs which can be used for quilts or embellishment on other cloth articles, bags, pillows, clothing etc.
    I discovered celtic quilting while on holiday in the USA and borrowed the books from the library. Maybe this could be your first option before buying the books.
