Fiber artists honor Elvis Presley in a collection that is as unique as the King of Rock and Roll himself. The art quilts celebrate his songs, movies, and life in an inspired and creative group of 95 works. Enjoy a wide range of interpretations, from realistic to humorous to abstract. Quilts are accompanied by a mix of memories of Elvis, descriptions of the making of these art quilts, and details about the King, creating a one-of-a-kind treasury for Elvis fans and collectors. As a bonus, Elvis devotees are challenged to test their knowledge in a Name-This-Song visual guessing game.
A colorful celebration of the 59 US National Parks, this collection of 177 original art quilts depicts the widely varying landscapes, flora, and fauna of the parks. Basic facts about each of these national treasures-from Acadia in Maine, to Voyageurs in Minnesota, to Yosemite in California, to HaleakalAE in Hawaii-are included, along with short writings from 64 park rangers and other personnel. The book reveals individual glimpses into the passionate commitment to preserve, protect, and enjoy these special places.
Experience (minus the crowds!) a unique travelogue celebrating our nation's capital visually with art quilts. Fiber artists used their talent and creativity to depict 103 special sights, sites, and events in the Washington, DC, area, from the iconic to the lesser known. You won't want to miss any of these, from the White House and Senate to the Smithsonian museums, from the neighborhood of Georgetown to an oasis of lotus flowers on the Anacostia River, from the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington Cemetery to Manassas Battlefield Park. Each art quilt is accompanied by interesting facts about the site. For instance, would you like to visit the CIA headquarters? Not possible! Did you know DC is the home of the top-rated neonatology hospital in the US? And the Tidal Basin is affected by the tides. Learn how history has shaped our capital and cherish this unique memento.
Lively, colorful, and skillfully made fabric "portraits" of 182 endangered species bring them to real, vibrant life. Each portrait features fascinating animal and plant facts from rescuers, scientists, conservationists, and more: where they live, what their superpowers are, why they are at risk, and how we can help. Dedicated and passionate people who work to protect endangered species share details of their roles and specialties, the planning behind conservation measures, threats to healthy habitats, and inspiring success stories. This book fosters eco-awareness and responsibility with a hopeful and positive tone, not only educating but inspiring action. A percentage of money earned by the author from the sale of this book will be donated to the Sea Turtle Conservancy and to the WILD Foundation.
