SUMMARY- I read this one with great interest. It imparts a lot of useful information. I don't have access to a long-arm quilting machine, so figuring out how to quilt my mom's tops on my old Kenmore or Pfaff may be my only option. This book makes it look doable. If possible, I'd find the expanded and revised edition with the green cover.
