A year or so ago Gwen self published this book. It is also available from Amazon but what you get isn't really the same book. What, you ask? The book you get from Gwen is on beautiful, heavy glossy paper which allows you to appreciate the photos right down to the quilting stitches. The book from Amazon is on a lighter, duller paper which distorts to colors and makes most of the quilting disappear. Since this is primarily an quilting inspirational book the Amazon copy is a washout.
I am posting a review on Amazon today but thought it was best to let ya'll know. Generally I am a big Amazon fan. On this one however they really dropped the ball....take the time to opt for the original....
Thanks for the PSA - what a disappointment it would be to get the Amazon one and then see the real thing.
ReplyDeleteGood to know - thanks for the heads up -

How do you get the original version? Order from Gwen??? Help!
ReplyDeleteHow can they do that? Isn't that a Copywright infringemment????
ReplyDeleteI bought the book but I think I ordered from Tonya's site.
Wow! that is interesting info. I wouldn't think that would be allowed. Thanks for the heads-up.
ReplyDeleteCurious what Gwen thinks about it.
No kidding? I'm a huge fan of Amazon and now they have a be *uncool* in my book. Wow. I'm going to complain.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that a printer issue? Amazon doesn't print the books...???
