The Quilter's Catalog: A Comprehensive Resource Guide
The sheer volume of work that this former Wall Street Journal reporter put into this guide is astonishing. Along with more than several step-by-step projects, Meg goes into depth on the issues and products we want to know about – longarms, fabric dyeing, new vs. old techniques, up-to-the minute quilting tools, and interviews with the top quilting personalities known today (Well, not me but her book was written before we met. How's that for luck?). Honestly, if you have a quilt related question, it's answered in this book.
