I LOVE the book called Strip Happy - I made the cover quilt in very similar colors and it came out beautifully. All very easy and I think all of them use only jelly rolls. Or maybe jelly rolls with a little bit of yardage.

Pam and Nicky Lintott's Jelly Roll Quilts is wonderful, too - the patterns are a little more complicated than those in Strip Happy, but the results are spectacular.

I just got a book called Vintage Notions by Amy Barickman - that's a charming book just to sit and read, although it isn't an instruction book.

Egg Money Quilts by Eleanor Burns is another of my favorites - although I haven't yet made a single one of any of those blocks.

Quilting For Show comes with a video DVD and the hints and tips are worth their weight in blue ribbons - even though I have no intention of ever entering a quilt in a show.

Machine Quilting Solutions by Christine Marracini is my favorite book about machine quilting, although I also like Diane Gaudynski's Guide to Machine Quilting.
