A couple of weeks ago I found a little book called Joy of Quilting by Helen Kelley. Since I had a trip planned I bought it to read on the plane. Yesterday after I got settled in on the plane I took out my little book and started reading. As I read I found myself nodding in agreement, smiling or chuckling in amusement. Before I knew it I'd reached my destination and the plane was landing. So today I wanted to share my find and recommend this book to all my fellow quilters. It addresses many of the topics discussed on this forum from individuality in style/color choices, messy vs. organized quilting spaces, dealing with disasters in a quilt and following or breaking the "rules." This book will make you feel good about your quilts and about yourself as a quilter whether you're a beginner or a long-time quilter. I found my copy at Tuesday Morning. I'm now on the lookout for other books by Helen Kelley.
