The local quilting guild brought in a book seller to display his wares. A fantastic lot! I browsed while he pulled historical quilting books for me to look at. These are the ones I know I buy as resources. For colour combinations and border inspirations. And for the stories about the quilts and their makers.

This book I plan to read from front to back to discover her quilt story. I know she has a new book out. I figured $5 for the old one was a good deal.
