Product Description
Looking for a meaningful, personal quilt to give as a gift or to pass down to future generations? T-shirts, photographs, and autographs may not be what you think of as "traditional" quilt elements, but for those wanting to honor a special person, or commemorate an event, or to simply preserve the memory of a bygone era, they add a personal touch to a quilt like no other.
12 projects: T-shirt Quilts (Blanket Statement; Remember When; and Good Sports); Autograph Quilts (Quilt of Prayers; Quilting Stars; and Crowded Lake); and Photo Quilts (My Sister, My Friend; Memories in the Making; and Stick to It magnetic frames [4 blocks]). The T-shirt quilts are also shown in variations made using traditional quilt fabrics or luxurious pile fabrics.
Reader Reviews
There have been so many books written about T-shirt, autograph and photo quilting lately. It is such the rage. If you have never read about these types of quilt, this is one you could pick up. But, if you are like me, and read any and every quilting book you can get your hands on, I would not run right out and buy it. It wasn't until page 34 of this 47 page booklet that my interest was caught. The quilt titled MY SISTER, MY FRIEND held my attention because of the appliqué on the outside border. It was a photograph quilt made up of star blocks. The saving grace was the appliqué. There are four pages of basic quilting instructions. Each project has a materials list, cutting instructions and the how-to of assembling the quilt. If a template is needed, it is also included. There are "tip" boxes scattered throughout the book with ideas such as different color options or a theme suggestion. All in all, this is a good book for anyone who is just starting in the T-shirt, photograph or autograph quilts.
