Quilting Books and Shops {Links/Reviews}


This is a great book if you're looking to make smaller quilts. I find that if they're much bigger than 60", it's really hard to quilt them on my regular sized sewing machine. But these are adorable and small. Amazon.co.uk
has them for £8.67, 42% off. It's a good deal, as most of the quilt patterns are really versatile and can be used with many different fabric lines, not just the ones they're pictured with!
And Fabrics Plus has Moda 'strip rolls' for £14.50, where you get 20 strips instead of 40 - perfect for making one small quilt to see if you like it! (BTW, I've ordered from Fabrics Plus before and they're lovely)

 This book is great if you're not sure you want to jump in with jelly rolls but like other Moda Pre-cuts, or you want to make bigger quilts, say for use on a single bed. The patterns are easy, and the directions are very good. Amazon.co.uk is selling copies for £8.74, so it's a pretty good deal.

Good Quilting Suppliers in the UK:
Cotton Patch
Quilter's Cloth
Puddleducks Quilts - they're really lovely to deal with, too.

    I purchased the Two From One quilt book and love it! I can't wait to get started with the patterns. I do think some of the quilts are on the smaller side, but that's easy enough to fix if you add borders, etc. I also have their original Jelly Roll Quilts book and have a finished Friendship Braid top that turned out great in Moda Verna.
