Lap Quilting Lives! by Georgia Bonesteel. From the back cover: Let the host of the popular television show Lap Quilting with Georgia Bonesteel help you add the ultimate flexibility and comfort to your quiltmaking--learn to break your quilts down into simple, manageable steps with lap quilting!
Isn't that a pretty quilt on the front of the book? While the colors sing to me, it is the quilting that really sets that quilt off. The premise of lap quilting is to quilt each block and then assemble them into a top. I'll admit I haven't tried this technique--at least not yet. However, I have read the book often enough that I know how to do it. Therefore, I'm ready to pass this book along. The book not only shows the technique, it's filled with a variety of quilt projects.

Now that is a book I can really use. Seems like something that will enhance my quilting and patchwork techniques and methods.

That is a pretty quilt on the cover. Thanks for the chance to win this one. I checked out one of her books from the library many years ago and was intrigued with her technique, even though I haven't tried it yet.
