Friends Forever Quilting Together by Nancy J. Smith and Lynda Milligan

Friends comfort us in troubled times and help us celebrate the good times. Friendships provide precious memories that can be stitched into a quilt. Having gathered over 20 years of quilting friends, we decided to celebrate them with this book, a treasury of friendship quilts. We designed big quilts, small quilts, bright quilts, muted quilts, and yes, even a "teach a friend to quilt" quilt. We suggest scrap and block exchanges to share with groups of friends. Sprinkled throughout are quotes about friends and friendships that might just prompt a memory that in turn will inspire a quilt for a treasured friend. Offering an assortment of styles and skill levels, this group of 20 quilts and wall hangings is a collections you will come back to again and again. Included are several quick and easy small projects that are perfect for last-minute gifts. As Billie Holiday said, "If I don't have friends, I ain't got nothing." Celebrate your friends--make a quilt!
