Here is one I bought at www.half.com I have since bought a quilting machine and passed this on to a friend on the Board.

That is a great website. Thank you for posting it. It is now in my bookmarks, under "Books to Buy!"

One of her insights about quilters that she shared is, if you're standing in line to have a yard cut and the person behind you says "Oh, I HAVE to get some of that!", you then decide to get three yards for yourself. Oh, how true.

That is so true! :lol:

Too funny, My Christmas wish list to DH was a bunch of domestic (not longarm) machine quilting books. Hopefully he gets them all for me. I found them on line, some used and to get them all (including one piecing book) would be under $100.

Here is the list I gave him:

Guide to Machine Quilting by Diane Gaudynski (found new on line for $11)

Elegant Macine Quilting by Joanie Zeier Poole (found new on line for 2.76)

Heirloom Machine Quilting by Harriett Hargrave (not sure which edition) found used on line for $10

The most expensive one of the bunch was Divide & Conquer: Quilt it your way by Nancy Smith and Lynda Milligan new for $35

The piecing book was Quilts of Illusion by Laura Fisher (used $3)

Can't wait to see what these babies have to offer.
