I have two used Debbie Mumm books from the 90's and the patterns are so cute. I also like my mini quilt books which I have 4 of.

I have some Debbie Mumm books too. They are so much fun to look at. I've never actually made anything from them though.

I have the problem of buying the books but not having actualy enough time to use all of them.....Some books are really great...other ae more specific...It depends on our level skills and what we are really up into next.... :roll: :roll: :roll: Books are great...I can always go back to them and they always have something new to teach me.....

What are your favorite quilting books?

I like Eleanor Burns. I have lots of quilting books from my collection of books over the past 30 years

I have lots of books, have been collecting for years. I guess my favorite is 365 Fun-To-Stitch QUILT BLOCKS from house of White Birches. It is all 12.5 inch blocks, and so much fun to look at, and try new ones. Ones I have never seen anywhere else

Elly Sienkiewitz (sp?) Baltimore Album. I have most of her series. Then there's a scattering of everything imaginable!! My bible is Fons and Porter Complete Guide to Quilting (Actually had that spirl bound has highlighting and post-it-notes everywhere) I got it when I first started quilting. Like books on quilting designs, borders, blocks and color!

My newest favorites are: Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns and Encyclopedia of Applique both by Barbara Brackman.

I would also say Traditions with a Twist, I have made three from it, and love them all.

The best book I have found is The Quilting Answer Book by Barbara Weiland Talbert-it has solutions and answers for just about everything.
