Making Quilts: With Kathy Doughty of Material Obsession
Author(s): Kathy Doughty
This title helps you discover your own quilting style with these 21 inspiring projects. Believing that each quilt is but a starting point for a new quilt, Kathy Doughty shares 21 of her patterns and invites you to recreate them in your own voice. You'll find quilts you love and quilts you don't like at all. She encourages you to discover in each quilt what appeals to you. To help you define your own style, each quilt pattern is outlined by three exploratory tips regarding concept, technique, and fabric choices. Simply follow the easy guidelines and let your instincts make your choices.
Product Information
I love books that not only offer great patterns, but inspire each individual's creative soul. Some people need encouragement that, yes, they do each have their own creative soul and that is what Making Quilts with Kathy Doughty of Material Obsession does so well. Quilters will learn to push the limits of color and print combination with a flair from "down under." Many of the quilts are a visual cacophony with surprisingly pleasing results. Then there is the strikingly simpler "Wagga" on page 123. A wonderful opportunity to let a few fabrics (perhaps even recycled fabric) humbly harmonize together. --American Quilt Retailer; September 2013
Kathy Doughty began making quilts 20 years ago after moving to Australia with her family. She currently runs the hugely popular Material Obsession crafting shop.
