Thanks, Sandy. I was reading a review on Amazon about a beginner's type book for machine quilting and the reviewer mentioned all 3 of those authors as having books more suitable to the quilter who is beyond just the beginner stage. It wasn't a slam at the beginner book, just saying that those 3 authors kind of took it to the next level so that if you have any experience at all then it would be good to go ahead and check them out. Now that I've done some FMQ, I am hooked and thoroughly addicted to it. I think I may never do SID again unless it's just for a quick gift. :) So I'm definately going to be looking for resources to take the stitching up a notch.
