The Giving Quilt: Fast Quilts for Comfort and Healing - which I got on sale at Joann's and love it! I've made two and my new-to-sewing niece has made her first quilt from here for an English class project that her English Teacher has fallen in love with.
Fast and Fun Machine Quilting - Rodale's Successful Quilting Library - got this one at our quilt guild silent auction for $1!!! Really like the tips on how to machine quilt and how to fix problems in your machine quilting.

I just bought a new one by Pam and Nicky Lintott called Jelly Roll Sampler Quilts. It has more than 50 different blocks, all adapted for 2.5" strips. You can make one of the quilts in the book or combine any of the blocks for your own design. I like that...lots of blocks to try out. And I have lots of scraps cut into 2.5" strips.
