Book of the Month 2014

This page contains affiliate links for which I receive a small compensation for any purchase made through these links - thank you for your support!

Do you collect quilting books, only to have them sit on the shelf waiting for that 'someday'?
Each month I choose a book, and make a quilt either following a given pattern, or learning a technique to come up with an original.
Hope you are inspired by my book choices!
