I'm with Paper Princess - the Harriet Hargrave series Quilter's Academy are the absolute best! The books take you from the basics - how to cut - and how to sew an accurate seam - how to get the size block you need, etc. The book then gives you projects to work on with each lesson you learn. This is a series of 6 books (book number 4 should come out in a year) that takes you all the way to designing your own quilts.

I took a day long class from Harriet in May. It was a fabulous experience.

The Quilting Answer book is a brilliant little book. I bought this after I'd been quilting for about a year - wish I'd bought it sooner!
