Here is an inspiring journey that provides a new way to pass on the
gifts of family stories. Award-winning quilter, Mary Kerr, shares
tips and ideas on how family memories can live on by creating
contemporary quilts from vintage textiles. Repurposing rather than
purchasing is the focus here, and through more than 100 images,
quilters are encouraged to breathe new life into objects that would
have otherwise stayed in the trunk or the dresser drawer. Turn feed
sacks, doilies, and vintage clothes with their meaning and stories
into lovely modern quilts. Complete with tips for the cleaning and
care of textiles and copious design ideas, this is the ideal
inspiration book for experienced and new quilters.
