Editorial Reviews

Review

Meg sent me a copy of her book the other day, The Quilter's Catalog: A Comprehensive Resource Guide, and I'm here to tell you that it's absolutely, mind bogglingly, out of this world. The sheer volume of work that this former Wall Street Journal reporter put into this guide is astonishing and I defy any quilter (or non-quilter for that matter) to diss it.
Along with more than several step-by-step projects, Meg goes into depth on the issues and products we want to know about – longarms, fabric dyeing, new vs. old techniques, up-to-the minute quilting tools, and interviews with the top quilting personalities known today (Well, not me but her book was written before we met. How's that for luck?). Honestly, if you have a quilt related question, it's answered in this book.
Listen to this. The book's retail price is an astonishing $17.95 ( www.amazon.com is selling it for $12.21!) making it the very best value of any current quilt related book on the market today. How could you possibly pass it up? Kids, this is huge and I assure you that The Quilter's Catalog will be my bedside and sewing room reading for years to come!

Meg Cox's scrapbag of lessons and lore takes the mystery out of quilting while leaving the mystique. The Quilt Catalog is an essential companion for quilters and quilt-lovers.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is AMAZING., February 26, 2008
I loved this book from the moment I held it. It is a nice, thick, quality book. But it's what inside that makes it superb. There is a wealth of information on just about everything you would want to know about quilting. One area that really surprised me was the author's information on websites - I thought I knew them all and she had a ton of sites I had never found (the listing of sites for African fabric was amazing!). The author's profiles of great teachers also make for great reading. She helps the reader understand the passion and need to create of these folks and to me, that is worth the price of this book alone. I can tell you this - The Quilters Catalog will be in my top five. Thank you so much for writing this book. It is evident it was a labor of love.

5.0 out of 5 stars A True Treasure for Beginning to Advanced Quilters, February 24, 2008
By G. Bitter (Princeton Junction, NJ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Whether you're new to quilting, or have been quilting for years, I'm sure you'll find useful or interesting material in Meg Cox's new book. In addition to being a great resource, this book is a fantastic read - full of stories and history. You'll find suggested websites to visit for everything from where to donate quilts, to sites for your favorite quilt artists and teachers. There are sections for cool tools (like the reducing glass which was new to me), and tips from the top quilting teachers. I've been quilting for four years and have two very basic sewing machines that I use for piecing (I'm hopeless at machine quilting). Now, thanks to Meg's book, I found out that there a machines where you can use your knee to raise the presser foot - who knew? I just may need one of those! Plus there are twelve great projects. I can't wait to make my own fruit tart pin cushion, but my own rule that there cannot be more than three projects in the works means that I'll have to finish up that New York Beauty quilt before I embark. Happy Quilting to all who buy this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars raves for gifts , March 21, 2008
By B. F. Fox (Princeton, NJ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I gave quilters this book, it got raves. It's so packed full of intriguing bits of information, and also with enticing projects. I'm not a quilter, but the bright photos and the easy-seeming instructions make me want to get out my needle and threads. BFF
