Free Motion Quilting with Angela Walters

I think she says with instead of by because of the great way she has of making you think you could actually do this with her help...I love it.

Guided by a Stone-Mason

Thomas Maude leads you through an exploration of the cathedrals, abbeys and churches of Britain in this small book.

It was an informative read set out like you are on a walking tour of the cathedrals without the walking.  He explores the bones of the church in a structural way that makes you feel that you will see any old building with new eyes.

When our children were young we travelled and churches were often on the agenda.  They were beautiful, free, and usually welcoming to families.  Many of his descriptions reminded me of the cathedrals I have seen in Halifax, Montreal, Seattle, Salt Lake City.  Perhaps not even all very old.  It is a testament to the early stone masons that with our modern materials we wish to repeat the patterns from a thousand years ago.
