MY “GO TO” QUILTING BOOKS

MY “GO TO” QUILTING BOOKS

I am regularly asked by blog readers to suggest books that I feel are classic and timeless for quilting info. Below are the ones that are my “go to” quilt books for instructions, photos, and inspiration.

All are older books. I have used them hard. The bindings are long since broke and three now have spiral bindings because of that. But the information is timeless and helpful. Beginner quilter to expert, I really do recommend these books for a personal quilting library.

Quilting with Strips and Strings.
This one has simple blocks like log cabins to more complicated such as spider web. Lots of great drawings to help.
Quilts Quilts Quilts and Quilts Galore
These two books contain super simple instructions on basic piecing and cutting to putting a quilt in a frame for hand quilting. Great instructions and lots of photos.
Quilter's Complete Guide
This books covers color, cutting, sewing, various quilt blocks from super simple to complex, quilting and binding.

I encourage quilters to have a few books of their own that they will utilize. I know it can be hard to sift through all the beautiful book covers to find helpful and useful info, but take your time and find a few that will help you on your quilting journey.

Happy Stitching.
