Material Obsession, Modern Quilts with Traditional Roots

This gorgeous book offers 23 vibrant quilt patterns that appear fresh and modern, but are often based on traditional designs. Clear explanations help any quilter—novice or seasoned—create striking variations of their own by seeking inspiration from both the fabric in front of them and the world around them. Patterns are arranged in order of difficulty, and a techniques section thoroughly reviews the basics of patchwork and quilting. Material Obsession provides quilters with everything they need to put a modern twist on an age-old craft—and to express their own creative spirits while they’re at it.
