A book for every kind of maker

Project book or reference book?

Both earn their place in a sewing room. Pick the one that fits what you want to do next—or choose one of each.

Choose a project book when…

You want a collection of complete quilts, a reason to cut into a favorite bundle, or several patterns built around the same fabric amount.

Choose a reference book when…

You want to understand a technique, improve a skill, solve a recurring problem, or keep dependable instructions close to your machine.

Need help choosing?

Tell us what fabric—or skill—you have in mind.

Our Boise quilting team can help you find a book for a specific precut, fabric panel, skill level, or style of quilt. You can even bring the book into the store and we will help you start pulling fabric.
