We all have things we treasure -- love letters, postcards, programs from graduations, wonderful photos of our ancestors. This terrific book shows you how to bring these out of the boxes and onto art quilts that become treasures in themselves.

Using techniques that transfer images to fabric, the authors show quilts they have made from their favorite things, and give complete instructions on how you can use these same techniques.The charming quilts include one featuring items from a naval officer's adventures around the world; one made from a beloved grandmother's hankies; one showcasing prize ribbons from dog shows.

You'll be inspired by the well-written stories about each quilt, and its meaning to the author.

All in all a wonderful book that teaches and inspires at the same time.
