    I am again working on a reorg of our resources here in Fiber Arts. Dr. Debby did an amazing job sorting our threads, so now I will slowly start getting them indexed.

    This thread will be for print resources, and will eventually get linked into a main index.

    Add other favorite books and magazines as a new post, with links or reviews, and I will incorporate them into this list. As it would be unwieldy to list ALL that is out there, I recommend contributing those titles which have most influenced your fiber art or seem really noteworthy! :lol:
