I absolutely adore this new Bernatex range called City Girl Holiday. I love the very stylised poinsettias flowers and the bright colours. The many coordinates make this range very versatile - remove the poinsettias and the fabrics will work all year round!

It features traditional tile designs translated into quilts.

Kids Start Quilting

With safety in mind, this book will show you how to enthuses kids to quilt-making. The projects are kept quick and simple - but without dumming down... perfect points are still expected!

Quilt Challenge

What if? is probably one of the best questions a quilter can ask - based on that fact, this book will challenge you to use fabrics (and colours!) in ways you may not even  thought were possible. A great mind-stretcher!

 

Strip Therapy

Great little book based on using 2 1/2" strips

Sew What! Skirts

If you like your patchwork fabrics so much that you would like to wear them (and I have been tempted myself) this is the book for you.

If you like the look of curves, but shy away from them because you think they are too difficult, then this book is for you.

Revised in 2009, this title is still a best seller for beginners - great reference title

Charmed, I'm sure

Choose from 15 projects ranging from lap quilt and table runner to double size bad quilts

Make perfect miniature Lone Star quilts  every time with a new method of fold-and-sew paper piecing

This book is FULL of useful information on the subject.

One of my favourite titles this month, this title shows lots of embellishing techniques to make your quilts truly unique.

You will learn about beading, pin-tucks, yoyos, couching, ruching, applique

And if, like me, you have been collection buttons for longer than you remember, you might finally get to use them!!
