Memorabilia Quilts Fabulous Projects With Keepsakes & Collectibles

Scrapbooking and stitching-- two of today's most popular crafts-- come together in these spectacular, memory-preserving quilts. If you could make a time capsule of precious moments in your life, what would you put in it: Family photos? Notes from your children? Grandma's beautiful hand-crocheted handkerchiefs? They can all become part of a warm and wonderful quilt to wrap up in or display on the wall. One unique pattern features Dad's old work ties. Another blanket showcases those fun t-shirts you've collected over the years, while ticket stubs from fondly remembered concerts make up a musical motif. Or photocopy picture postcards onto fabric and then cut and sew. The instructions for the creative techniques, plus basic quilting guidance, are all here.Weiss, Rita is the author of 'Memorabilia Quilts Fabulous Projects With Keepsakes & Collectibles', published 2007 under ISBN 9781402733536 and ISBN 1402733534.
