I learned the most from Eleanor Burns - Quilt in a Day and Fons & Porter's - Love of Quilting. Learned some from Sue Hausmann's - America Sews and Nancy Zeeman's - Sewing with Nancy. And got tons of inspiration from Alex Anderson's Simply Quilts.

Pretty interesting!

Oh, yes, I'm still watching Nancy. She comes on after Martha Pullen. I love when Nancy does the reruns of earlier series. It helps to reinvorce and to let me see how far I've come along.

I also can't forget Kaye Wood with her 6-hour quilts. I met Martha, Kaye, and Alex at one of Martha's Sewing Markets. Actually one was in Huntsville and the other was in Arlington. Great gals.
