I'm looking for a new quilt book that will inspire/motivate me to do something different. Any reviews on a new one? The last one I bought was
Rotary Cutting Revolution and I have about worn it out using all the patterns in the book several times.

I have all of E Burns books. I have the Radiant Star kit ready to sew. I need a block of time to start and finish without interruptions so it's on hold until I go on a weekend quilt retreat.

I just ordered Tradition with a Twist by Blanche Young, and an Eleanor Burns DVD. I order books out of the library first and after I read them, if I really like them, then I will order them. I got so tired of ordering books that looked and sounded great but then when I got them they weren't as good as I expected.

I found a Pam Bono book at Big Lots for $3.00 It is Rectrangles (sic) New Quick Piecing tricks. I haven't started any yet. The one I want to do calls for 16 (!!) different fabrics. It will take me awhile to coordinate all those.
