I bought Fons and Porter’s Complete Guide to Quilting many many years ago and I think it covres just about everything. I’ve always liked it, especially since it starts you out with very simple information and techniques and builds with each project. It does look dated now though and I don’t think it would appeal to the under 30 modern quilt guild crowd. For that I too like The Modern Quilt Workshop though I don’t think it has the nice learning curve that Fons and Porter’s book has. I imagine teh best thing to do is to just browse teh quilt section of the book store and see what speaks to you for some it will be reference material, for others it will be specific projects .
