Title: Wise Craft Quilts: A Guide to Turning Beloved Fabrics into Meaningful Patchwork Author: Stocker, Blair Released: 2017-03-14 Publisher: Roost Books - Bolder, Colorado ISBN: 9781611803488 Format: Hardcover Category: Crafts, Hobbies & Home Last Updated: 2018-06-17 Rating: -1 Pages: 192 Description: Infuse your quilts with love--how to add your personal story and more meaning to your handmade quilts. In Wise Craft Quilts, celebrated quilt designer and crafter Blair Stocker shares ways to use cherished fabrics to make quilts with more meaning. Each of the twenty-one quilts featured here gathers a special collection of fabric, outlines a new technique, and spins a story. By using special fabrics as the starting point for each project--from a wedding dress to baby's first clothes, worn denim, Tyvek race numbers, and more--the finished quilt is made even more special. Create quilts that have a story to tell and you'll find a whole new level of appreciation for what they represent in your life and the lives of the ones you love. Editorial Reviews Review "I wish I could have had my hands on this book when I began making quilts."--Denyse Schmidt, from the Foreword |
