I can'r narrow down a quilting book right now. Lately I have been doing a lot of embroidery,hand, and applique. I have found a couple of Australian magazines that i love. Currently I am working out of a book called "An Angel Story" by Anni Downs. The other dayIwas able tp purchasr a mag. called "American Homespun". It is full of patterns for embroidery,quilts, and other crafts. I wish we had magazines here in the states like it. I tried to order it but $159.00 is a little much for a year. I'm still searching for more. They just seem to have what I like in their magazines.
