Free-Motion Quilting Books

In my journey to improve my free-motion quilting (FMQ) skills, I found great inspiration and insights through quilting books.  I compiled a list of books on FMQ and actively began researching these books and authors.  To clarify,  I do not have copies of all of these books (but would love to). 

I hope this list may be of use to you and that you also have a chance to check these books out.  These authors are amazing free-motion quilters who have given us a wonderful gift by sharing their insights through their books.

If you have insights on other books I should add to this list, please let me know.  And, of course, I'd love to hear  about your favorites.
  
When I have been able to write a review on any of these books the Title will contain a link to my review.  I do plan on updating this list, over time, so you may want to bookmark this page in your Favorites and check back for future updates.
