My New Book!

Good Morning, Quilters!

My new book, 25 Days to Better Machine Quilting will be here soon and we are taking pre-orders! We will ship books by June 3, 2020!

I am so proud of this book–It’s a happy, happy day! When I finished writing, in February of 2019, I told the publisher they could call it “Everything Lori Kennedy Knows About Machine Quilting”!   (I’ve learned a bit since then, so maybe I have a fourth book in me–lol!)

Motif Books

My first two books are primarily motif books.  Free Motion Machine Quilting 1-2-3 and More Free Motion Machine Quilting 1-2-3 include step-by-step tutorials for more than 60 motifs in each book.  Both books include chapters on machine set-up and other helpful tips, but my new book goes in depth on 25 quilting topics.

The Answer Book

YOU were my inspiration!  When writing this book, I relied heavily on questions YOU ask here at LKQ.  The book includes 25 chapters answering all those little questions and dilemmas that hold us back from finishing our quilts!

Hands-On Learning

 25 Days to Better Machine Quilting is a hands-on approach to learning free motion quilting.

Each chapter covers a topic in-depth and then provides a small project to illustrate and practice the new skill.

The projects are fun and cute-cute-cute!

With each new skill you gain, you’ll be more confident about stitching YOUR quilts!

25 Lessons/25 Weeks

Each lesson and the accompanying project are designed to be completed in an afternoon. Starting in June, we will work on the projects together, completing one or two lessons per week.  (Like a college course in machine quilting!)  While many of the concepts are simple, the BEST way to learn is hands-on.  I hope YOU will join in!

Pre-Order on Etsy

I would be delighted if YOU would pre-order from my Etsy shop. We are offering an early-bird special rate of $24.99!

All books will be signed to YOU and will include a little quilting sample!

Once everyone has their books, we will start our online quilt-a-long!

I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

HAPPY STITCHING!

Yours,

Lori

  2. Would love to order your new book but went to Etsy to price it and the book itself is costly enough at AU$ 40.67, then if you add in the postage of AU$35.80 it really knocks it right out of my spending capability as a pensioner. Is there any other way of obtaining it? eg download pdf?

    1. I just checked Amazon.com, and it says there is a Kindle format for $9.99US, pre order price.

      1. GrannyH – Don’t own a Kindle. Can Kindle format be used on a computer?

      2. I bought one of Lori’s books on Kindle and cannot print it. To get to South Africa cost more in postage than the actual book. Thanks to Lori for all her inspiration. I have used many of her motifs over the years.

  4. Very exciting! Each time I sit down to fmq, I always have a little fear in my stomach, feeling unsure about whether or not things will turn out. They usually do but I would love to feel more practiced and confident.

  8. Oh, WOW Lori! How awesome is this?! I think this my be my favorite of all your books and i really love the motif books!! I will go over and preorder TODAY, so i can be ready NEXT month! HOW is it almost June already?! Crazy.🤪

  10. This looks like an amazing book! Congratulations! I will have to check it out!

  11. Congratulations, Lori! Can’t wait to see the book! Every time I start to think about quilting my quilts, yours are the first books I go to! Love them!

  12. I just tried to order it at your shop and it was sold out.😥Will you have more soon?

  13. I tried to pre order and it’s sold out 😞. Any idea of when it will be available again?

    1. I see it’s available for pre order on Amazon, and there’s a Kindle format.

  14. I went to your Etsy shop to order your book and it says it is sold out!?

  15. First of all CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Secondly, I keep trying to pre-order your new book but when I click on the link to pre-order it says “Sorry this item is sold out.”

  16. Can’t believe you are sold out already, I just got the email about the book. Hopefully you will have more. I love your books and emails.

  19. Where’s the quilters equivalent of Pulitzer?!! You deserve it! What a lovely accomplishment!

  21. Great, Lori! And congratulations! I just ordered your latest book and can’t wait to receive it.

  23. I’m so excited for you, publishing your 3rd book!! I’m so looking forward to receiving your book. I’ve gotten so much pleasure out of your first 2 books.
    Thank you for your time and effort, helping us through our hesitations with machine quilting. We all appreciate your teachings.

  24. Yay! Got mine ordered on Etsy and will be anxiously awaiting shipment! I love the Motif books, and I know this one will be great!

  25. Since your unsubscribe on your newsletter emails does not work please unsubscribe me. It would be nice if you could fix that or have contact info to unsubscribe on your website!

    1. Hi Maureen. I have just hired a new company to fix this. Hopefully by next week! I can’t unsubscribe you either. Sorry

  26. Ordered! Can’t wait to try mini projects as sew alongs as I am lazy to start on my own or maybe just afraid!

  29. I saw the book at Cando Books in Australia listed at $54.99, not quite as expensive as from USA with postage. I think they do free postage for online orders.The price of books seems to have skyrocketed recently, Lots of them around $50 these days.
