Editorial Reviews
Product Description
The author captures the grace and artistry of a vintage rose garden with the essence of roses from the 1800s and early 1900s. Classic wreaths, cross sprays, single-stemmed roses, paper-cut designs, and floral arrangements are featured in 48 romantic patterns that can be used in many ways. They can be mixed and matched to make bed-sized quilts, throws, and small wallhangings. And a single rose block by any other name still creates a delightful pillow.The author provides four Album quilts as samples. Each quilt contains 12 different blocks from this series, and each quilt represents a specific theme, ranging from informal folk art to a more formal style. A master of dimensional effects, the author also shares a variety of techniques for adding texture to rose stems, leaves, buds, and blossoms, including instructions for several ways to make bias stems, stuffed roses, and embroidered flower and leaf details.The Rose Garden Challenge showcases the talents of other quilters in a gallery of inspirational quilts. Quilters will surely be inspired to make an Album garden of their own, or two, or three.
About the Author
A professional quilt teacher since 1990, Faye has taught at major quilt conferences. Her specialities are Baltimore album applique, Hawaiian quilting, and dimensional French ribbon flowers. Her quilt A Tribute To Celia Thaxter won first place in the category Reflective of a Particular Life and Time in C&T's Baltimore Album Revival Contest in 1994. Faye was also voted National Honored Teacher of Baltimore Album Applique by her students in that same contest. After being introduced to French ribbon work in Elly Sienkiewicz's "Dimensional Applique," Faye began intensely working with this new material. She lavishly incorporated wire-edged ribbon flowers into her Celia Thaxter quilt for a realistic and unique appearance. Her first book, Blossoms by the Sea , tells the story of Celia Thaxter's life, garden, the quilt, and making the flowers from the quilt
