My Book and Patterns
My new book has been released by Krause Publications and is in quilt shops now.
Here's what one reader had to say about the book:
This is one of the better quilt-related books I've purchased in a long time. I was just bemoaning the fact, to my girlfriend up north, that the pickins are pretty slim these days when it comes to finding good innovative books...something thats "different' and isn't about the quickest, easiest way to throw a quilt together. So it was a real pleasure to see how well composed and creatively you wrote this book. ... I've only had a chance to go through it quickly, but what I see is VERY informative, and the instructions and examples are GREAT! And the pattern sheets in the back are a very nice addition...
