The book is by Bethany S. Reynolds , Magic Stack - n - Whack Quilts is the name. She has lots of options , being a beginner (sounds like) try not to choose one that is too difficult. I have been sewing all of my life, I never remember not sewing. Have sewn everything from home dec. to bridal gowns, and everything between. I sew everyday on something. Do you think I love to sew? I would send pictures if I knew how. I am real stupid when it comes to computers, understand very little.
