    I need to give a shout out to Half Price Books of Des Moines, Iowa. I love going there for their collection of new and slightly used quilting book. On the shelf they're in order by author so you and quickly grad all the Fons and Porter you want and then there's always a display for new titles. My purchases yesterday ranged in price from $4.50 to $9.99 (included a pattern CD). It never fails that while I'm searching someone comes up behind me and wants to look too.

    Don't you just luv Half Price Books! I do! I love to read so I'm there every other week...and love the craft book section! I got a book on sewing once - I think it was a Sandra Betzina book - that had all the full size patterns still intact! Fantastic deal for about $4.00!

    Just go online and shop from the store. You don't even have to leave your house to buy from Half Price Books.
