Eleanor Burns Quilt In a Day books are sold at JAF. There is a book published by QIAD called Lover's Knot Placemats by Cynthia Martin. It is a simple pattern and you will learn a lot of basic quilting skills in making them. If you make a potholder, I might suggest getting some of the Insul Bright that is also sold at JAF (located in the batting section). It is a heat resistance batting. Good Luck.
