That’s what got me into quilting. I watched her PBS series then went to the library and checked out just about every quilt book they had. My first introduction to machine quilting was this book by Robbie and Tony Fanning.

It’s an older book and machine quilting has come a long way since then. But I mention it because I think the library is a good resource for looking into various quilting authors and techniques. Who or what appeals to me might not necessarily but what you’re looking for. If you find a book you like you can then look for it to buy.
