There are many excellent quilting books for all interests. A friend suggested "The Quilter's Catalogue" by Meg Cox as the one book that covers everything and more, the one you'd want to have with you on a desert island. I got it on Amazon for a few dollars and my friend was pretty much right. Also I echo the suggestions of seeing what's at your local library and visiting a book store and leafing thru pages to see what appeals to you the most.
