I read this quote somewhere...."No matter your level of workmanship one can always improve by going back to the basics".
isn't that the truth!
I have found a NEW book that is just amazing for beginner's. It comes out of the UK and chock full of VITAL information in the learning processes.
I have in the past always recommended Fons & Porters in the SPIRAL bound version if you can find it!

HOWEVER, while this is a fantastic book, and goes the distance on starting to finishing your quilt, it does lack the newer terminology and charts that are available today. That is where this new book comes in. It is amazing. By Linda Clements, it is the BEST teach all book I have found in the last 5 years!

I have only had this book for a few weeks and I am still reading through all the info, but at this point, I think I can safely say it is worthy of ANY quilter's book shelf!
