When Kathy Doughty and Sarah Fielke from www.materialobsession.com came out with their first book I was in agony because I could not buy it. It was in Australia and just not affordable to me.
I read their blog daily and it was because of them that I started working on my bold colored grandma's flower garden.
Every day for the past year I would search eBay, amazon, book stores, yard sales, etc... for the book at a better price.
I finally got lucky and found it on eBay for a very affordable price.
To me it is completely worth it.
The pictures are fabulous and I am thoroughly enjoying it.
All the quilts are quilts that they have made throughout the years, not the ones their customers make on their blog.
I love how almost all of them are hand quilted and many are quilted with pearl cotton which to me is like quilting with a nail but it works for them.
The drawings they have included are darling and the pictures are vibrant.

Enjoy your new book.
I'm happy that you got something you have been wanting for so long! That's a good feeling to know your search paid off, isn't it?
Enjoy the book. Material Obsession's have a wonderful blog.
Thanks for turning me onto that blog. I will check it out.
Don't you just hate how expensive all the Australian patterns/books cost. I finally sucked it up and bought a pattern from there but there are like 5 more I want but they are each $100 or more. I just don't get it.
I love that book too...but now I have to wait until I can get material obsession 2 for a good price here in the states!
Looks like a wonderful book, glad you were able to find it!
Well worth the wait I am sure....glad you found it.
I have this book. It is amazing.
I seriously want to get this book too... I've been wanting it ever since I found out about it. ou were clever to get it on ebay. I follow both Kathy and Sarah's blogs..they are fabulous. But the book would be so neat to have!
