Best "How -to" book
#1
My sister asked asked for a comprehensive "how-to" book to teach herself about quilting. In your opinion, which is the best one to give her?
Thanks for your opinion, which, I know, will be both expert and helpful!

I actually prefer the first version to the revised version, but both are excellent!
I think I like the first one better because it seems like fewer fabrics are used in the blocks.
I think this is my favorite, and if I only had one to refer to, this would be it.

I like Eleanor Burns Quilt in a Day books {series} also because they are simple to understand and precise and the print is large and easy to read. And she takes you step by step with nice colorful pictures. I'm sure there are wonderful ones out there but these are great for a beginner.
