REDWORK(and Bluework) EMBROIDERY FOR QUILT BLOCKS
Mom had only one book for this very popular genre of quilt. I've added a handful more that I've come across in my internet travels. This list is a very long ways from covering what is out there to be discovered. If you are a fan and have some on your shelves that I haven't set up a stub for yet in the bib below, it would be a big help to get a list from you.
Anyone with more information to share, corrections to make, or has books and magazines to donate or sell, can contact me
