A Material Obsession

Today was to be my next class with karen on my sampler, somehow dates got confused and we had no teacher, anyway on my way home feeling a little disappointed I rang a friend of mine and we agreed that we would meet at Material Obsession in the Sydney suburb of Gladesville and have a bit of a catch up and a coffee. Sometimes things just turn out for the better. I was so pleased we decided to catch up as the divine 'Miss Kathy' was in the house and we had such a lovely catch up.

Material Obsession is a great quilt store and if you have the opportunity to pay a visit do so.
I know Kathy is going to have a stand at the quilt show at Darling Harbour in June (June 10-14) but her store is not that far from Darling Harbour easily accessible by bus or car and she has the most eclectic range of fabrics. I managed to part with just a little money to purchase these gorgeous fabrics, how divine for fussy cutting, or whatever.

I couldn't resist this one either

I am sure that those of you that read Kathy's blog will have already seen the stunning work that is produced between these walls, but I thought I would just give you a little reminder.

Even if you are trying to resist the urge to splurge, let me say it will be impossible.

This quilt is featured in the latest edition of Quilters Companion magazine, it is so lovely to see these quilts in real life.

Some more of kathy's quilts and in the background the lovely 'Gypsy Kisses'. I think all of that cut fabric might be going to Darling harbour, if it lasts that long.

Plenty of notions to be had along with inspiration, inspiration , inspiration as well as the most friendly welcoming service.

What more could a couple of girls want on a wet miserable Saturday afternoon.

I'll be back soon with an update on the progress of my sampler, along with the girls in my class.

Until next time happy sewing
