So a quilting friend was showing off a quilt the other day and I fell in love with it. I was like I want that book. I go and look for it and it is out of print has been for a few years now. Just me I can borrow the book but there is a group of us wanting to make the quilt now. It has some applique/embroidery on it so its not like I could redo the pattern. Anybody got advice. I looked all over the internet and can't find it.

Have you tried checking the local libraries to see if they have the book available?

Many libraries can do inter-library loans, too. Our library can get books from any in the state. Maybe yours can, too.

Try amazon and click for the used books. You need to know the book's title

Please tell us the name of the book and the quilt you are wanting to do. Many of us keep a quilting library and might be willing to part with the book for you.

Google the name of the book. Also, I find books at Alibris.com and have purchased from them many times with no problem.
Good Luck
