Our homes are full of treasured items from the past. Hidden away
from view but never thrown away, they are our links to the special
people and events that tell our story. In this beautiful and
inspiring book, Tilly Rose encourages you to seek out your precious
stash of pre-loved items and transform them into beautiful and
practical textile artworks that celebrate the lives of your loved
ones and preserve your memories for generations to come. Tilly
shows you how to make 15 gorgeous projects, including cloth
journals, lavender hearts, framed collages, wall hangings and
miniature quilts. All of the designs have a story to tell and are
made using a plethora of vintage fabrics, threads, lace, ribbon,
buttons, beads, photographs and other found items. If you don't
have a collection of suitable materials at home, you can have fun
sourcing them from online marketplaces, thrift/charity stores and
flea markets, and try mixing them with modern fabrics and
embellishments for a more contemporary look. The projects
incorporate a range of exciting techniques, all explained through
clear instructions and step-by-step photographs, including layering
and collage, hand embroidery, transferring your own designs to
cloth, stamping, applique, embellishing, patchwork, free motion
embroidery and photo transfer. This book will take you on a truly
inspirational journey, encouraging you to be creative, to source
and re-use materials of special significance, and to incorporate
them into textile artworks that become treasured keepsakes.
