    I don't know if they are my favorites exactly, but 2 books I often use and find really valuable are:

    The Border Workbook by Janet Kime and
    Sensational Settings, which I can't find right now! (so much for my great organizing of my sewing area!)

        I got Vikki Pignatelli's book, "Quilting by Improvisation" yesterday in the mail. WOW!!! What a great book. The writing and the explanations are wonderful.
        Thanks to TQS for introducing us to so many fantastic quilters and new to us techniques.

          I just thought I would put this in because I thought it was sweet. My Dad was out and about the other day and he found a book called The Quilters Ultimate Visual Guide, Ellen Pahl Editor. I have no idea why he was looking at how to books at a second hand store. I began looking through it and wow there is a ton of info in it. This would be a fantastic book for a quilter at any level. He usually gets things for my boys or the other grandkids. This time I got to be spoiled. Rachel a very grateful daughter.

              MY library of quilting books is huge... over 250 books.. new, used and out of publications. My favorite is ususally the one I am using to solve a quilting problem.

              Currently Mary Masuto's FOOL PROOF MACHINE QUILTING.... using it of machine quilt my baby quilts for my grandson... loving it!


              I am making the F&P American Sampler for my BOM quilts.... I also have their BIG QUILTING GUIDE BOOK.

              I also have a huge collection of DVDs and books by Elenor Burns cause my quilting buddy and I are making the blocks for a second BOM for just the two of us.


              MY favorite tool is EQ6 because I can check my designs and quilting ideas before I cut my fabric. Saves me a lot of aggrivation.
