I was poking around online and noticed a few books I hadn't seen before and thought I would share.

Some nice quilty books:
The next three I am obsessing over. I will probably order them soon even though the bottom two are pre-orders.
I had pre-ordered Material Obsession 2 and wasn't planning on it arriving until October.
Luckily for me they released it early and it arrived this past Tuesday.
It's a really wonderful quilt book filled with fabulous quilt patterns and beautiful eye candy.
It was hard to choose but I think I picked the quilt I want to try first. I don't usually use quilt patterns because I am impatient and don't have a lot of sewing time but I am determined to try one before the end of the year. Maybe I'll realize quilt patterns are not as bad as I think.
Here is the one I am going to make.
It's called Coming Up Roses and has a 2/4 stars for difficulty level.
I was planning on working on it next week/weekend but unfortunately the fabric I was going to get is out of stock EVERYWHERE.
:(
I guess I'll wait a week or so and if it's not back in stock I'll have to find a new fabric line to use. My heart was really set on the High Society prints though.
Have you seen Sew Retro yet? I got it as a gift a few weeks ago and must say it's a really, really, great book.
It's chock full of cute vintage inspired projects
Designer interviews
Vintage images scattered throughout the book
And a fun little time-line with the history of sewing, fabric, patterns etc
I would recommend this book to anyone that loves sewing and plan on giving a few for gifts this year.
I haven't done any of the projects yet but hopefully once I get some other things done off my list I'll be able to tackle a certain cute little bag out of here.
