It’s been a while since I’ve posted my latest library stack like in my series of posts The Library Stack . Why? Because I took a break from “library stacks” and limited myself to one book at a time or actually reading books/periodical from my own stash!
But I could not stay away from my beloved library stack from my beloved public library, and yesterday I picked up a new stack:
The first book I am working through is Quilt As-You-Go Made Vintage by Jera Brandwig – a Pacific NW Authors (she lives in Seattle where I used to live!)
I discovered this book in the Non-Fiction New Releases section (first place I check out when headed upstairs at the library). Borrowing this is perfect timing, as my friend and quilting mentor Wendy H. has been advising me on how Terry the Quilting Husband (TTQH) and I can do “quilt-as-you-go” on the king-size quilt TTQH is currently working on. This book lays out three methods for quilt as-you-go in a very easy format.
I am tempted to buy the book but I am trying to take a break from adding any more books to my obscene craft book collection (I have an old post about my craft book collection, Craft Book Hoarder?!?!?, but maybe someday I will do an updated post of the current levels of craft book obsession..).
TTQH continues to work on his quilt on my sewing machine and Mike continues to keep him company in the chair in my sewing room!
You’re going to need to get yourself a second sewing machine! My mom and I often have to set up two🤣

Your library stack is interesting. I like cookbooks and quilting books and good fiction. I think you will like the Moosewood cookbook, lmk if/when you find a good recipe! TTQH and Mike crack me up, they are a real team.

You obviously have a wonderful library. I love the Moosewood cookbooks and have 2 of them, so I am NOT buying the new one. You are lucky to find it in your library 🙂

Great selection, Tierney! I have to admit that I share your craft book obsession! (which is a good obsession, right?). 🙂
