Just a thought for everyone -- when books are posted for sale here, I type the book name on Amazon.com. Sometimes Amazon.com will allow a free "preview" (a "look inside") of some of the pages. This allows me to get an idea of some of the projects in the book to see if I want to buy it from here!

Good idea
|
Thank you so much for the tip.
;-) debra ;-) |

I love that about Amazon, and also Connecting Threads lets you look inside a book.
|

I also check amazon and Connecting Threads.
CT practically gives away the entire contents photo-wise. |
Great tip!! Thank you for the suggestion. :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
yep, and connectingthreads.com does too.
|
Thanks for the tip. I often wonder if the picture on the front of the book will be the only quilt I like.
|
Google also has book previews of the contents.
|
yes, I do that also, thanks for posting this tip with everyone

Connecting Threads also has great book sales....one is going on right now. And they have a great preview of the books.
|
Did know you could do that on Amazon...will try it out, thanks for the tip.
|
Thank you for the tip.
|
Connecting Threads does too!
|
Thanks for the tip
|
I do this and THEN enter the data on my local library's website and request the book for free through interlibrary loan. Then I get to check out the WHOLE book for free before buying on Amazon.com. At $24-$29 bucks a book these days, I really gotta want it to buy it.

Welcome from northern
Indiana. Thanks for the tip. I didn't know that. Hugs, Sharon |
Thanks for the tip: Always like to see in the inside and check it out first:
|
I do the Amazon and local library thing.
What I like about Amazon is all the people who review books. Many times the reviews will determine IF I purchase a book - new or used. |
Wonderful idea! Thank you!
|
I do think we should pay others for their work.
|
And a lot of timees Amazon is a lot cheaper
|
nice tip
