Product Description

From Amazon

The old-fashioned quilting bee may be far less common than it was a hundred years ago, but the great prevalence of quilt-related Web sites and online discussion groups proves that modern-day quilters are just as eager to connect with one another as their predecessors were. This super little guide packs an extraordinary amount of information into its small pages. The Internet offers free patterns, tips, instructions, and advice on all aspects of the subject; the authors have distilled it into easily approached categories, and they include lots of simple computer instructions so that even the newest surfers can access, download, and chat with ease. --Amy Handy --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From Library Journal

This reviewer has mixed feelings about Internet subject guides. Not only do they go out-of-date about the time they're published but typing in long URLs is counterintuitive to the way one usually finds information on the web: by clicking on hot links. That said, there are some reasons for public libraries to consider purchasing this title. It links to a lot of quilt-related sites that are not going to disappear in the near future (like the MiningCo quilt site and LC's American Memory). It includes useful practical information for web novices like common error messages, how to print web pages, how to capture images, and how to read Usenet quilting newsgroups with your web browser. Finally, it is inexpensive. All the sources are annotated, and there is ample information on quilting-related E-mail lists and chat groups. Public libraries will want to gauge demand and buy accordingly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for quilters Jan 23 2000
By Robert Holland
Format:Paperback
Until search engines get a heck of a lot more intelligent than they are now, the best source for web site recommendations is from human beings. Particularly humans passionate about their subject matter. Judy and Gloria won't waste your time with a bazillion irrelevant links. They know their subject matter, and they know a good site when they see one. They're also a stitch. Or perhaps two stitches. Buy this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars A handy book for quilters at all levels of computer knowled Dec 29 1998
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This book is a valuable resource for quilters at all levels of computer knowledge. It explains away a lot of the "mysteries" of why your computer acts the way it does and points you in various directions to research out your own particular interests. Written in an easy conversational tone, it imparts a lot of information without talking down or over your head.
