Finish (almost) Any Quilt
Finish (almost) Any Quilt is a real twist in quilt books. Rather than provide quilt patterns that result in unfinished tops, Marguerita guides you through the steps of taking your projects and easily quilting them in small squares and then joining the quilted squares into finished quilts.
Updating the process from her very popular first quilt book, she shows how to easily adapt new quilt designs as well as unfinished quilt projects. With encouragement and permission to be imperfect, Marguerita's easy and relaxed techniques reflect her "no rules" philosophy, helping you finish all of your quilts.
Sew & Quilt in Comfort
Sew & Quilt in Comfort is a small book about how to inexpensively create and arrange your quilting space to fit you perfectly. The book has tips on how to create a custom table that will fit your sewing machine for about $100 without using any power tools.
Comfort is important!
It's easy for quilters to suffer wrist, elbow, shoulder and neck injuries from the repetitive tasks in quilting. Ergonomic positioning of your sewing area prevents these injuries.
I have videos on YouTube about this, lenses at Squidoo.com and this book is available in print and for the Kindle.
Please - don't cause your body pain while you quilt.
Hi, have just now discovered your videos. Thanks so much.
Hi, Congratulations on having the Health legislation passing Congress in the US. We have had a national health scheme, much like they have in Canada, for 35 yeas here in Australia. The Conservatives initially tried to get rid of it but it is now so widely accepted as an essential part of our social fabric that every political party endorses universal health cover. A healthy country is a productive country.
Thank you! I am thrilled for our country and hope we can do as well as Canada and Australia! We have a lot of catching up to do
I can sure do without politics on this subject & site. Nice to talk about quilting and get away from politics.

I agree with Joan…
When I think of quilting, I think of Quilting bees, meeting with friends, sharing smiles, good times, creating beautiful things to share with loved ones. I use quilting as a means to relax. When I have had an especially strssful day, I escape to quilting.
Please consider another separate blog for your political views. It’s like mixing business with pleasure!!
Hi Kathy, thank you for reading my blog!
I have never been to a quilting event that didn’t have a myriad of topics discussed, and the sharing of points of view by people I like and trust has always been something that I value, so I guess our perspectives here differ.
My blog, however, is not a quilting bee, it’s my life, my dreams, my beliefs, my hopes and my endeavors and my way of sharing good things with my friends, and additionally, I do some business here sometimes, and I believe in mixing business with pleasure
You are very welcome to read and comment on anything you like, but I am what I am, and my blog is a reflection of me and the only changes I see coming are that I tend to be more assertive in my beliefs since I passed my fiftieth birthday.
I wish you the happiest of quilting endeavors and I thank you for prompting me to make this statement about my blog. Marguerita
Thanks Marguerita for sharing this set of pics – it’s been a long tough year and we have finally made some progress in the Health Care for all. I know how hard it’s been for so many of my friends and some family who have been with inadequate or no health care at all. I look forward to the day when every mother who has a sick child doesn’t have to choose between food and a doctor’s visit. Love your blog and totally dig your perspective!
