    nancy's notions has landscape books, patterns, tv episodes, videos and tutorials for landscape quilting- her tv show has featured landscape quilting many many times over the years- her techniques are easy to learn- and well explained- and she has lots of great fabrics available to make them magical.

    Look for Ruth B. Mcdowell. She is fabulous and you will have to jump right in with no baby steps. You don't need them. Her book titled Piecing, Expanding the Basics is a superb book and will really get the creative mind working overtime! :thumbup: :thumbup:

    EDIT: You may look at this book and think it is way to complicated for a beginer. NO NO NO. Jump right in and play with her techniques. Have fun!
    peace

    Luminous landscapes is a really good one with simple patterns
    Nancy Ziemens books are good for overall information
