Published again… The Best of Quilting Arts: Your Ultimate Resource for Art Quilt Techniques and Inspiration
Tuesday, August 30th, 2011Wow what a fun way to start the day: open up an e-mail from Quilting Arts about “Ten Art Quilting Lessons Learned” to see that they have a new book. I knew months ago that something I had written for Quilting Arts several years ago was to be included in a new book. Well this is it, titled The Best of Quilting Arts: Your Ultimate Resource for Art Quilt Techniques and Inspiration, AND they featured my photo/pieces for the edge-finishes article in the e-mail!!!!!! Here is a link to see that e-mail online; scroll down to see my little green quiltlets. And here is a link to pre-order the book. Make sure to click on the tab to see what is in the book (my bits are in the first section). It looks like it will be a great book, and I am so thrilled and honored to be included!
The major sections in the book are:
- Introduction
- 1. Starting and Finishing: Articles on Art Quilt Basics
- 2. Trends in Surface Design: Articles on Stamping, Dyeing, Printing and More
- 3. Represent! Articles on People, Pets, and Text in Art Quilting
- 4. Make it Green: Articles on Recycled and Natural Materials
- 5. Too Much is Never Enough: Articles on Embellishment and Mixed Media
- Contributors
- Resources
- Index
It is 160 pages and only $24.95… can’t wait to buy my copy! I am thrilled giddy and silly to be included with folks like Jane Dunnewold, Terry Grant, Jane Davila, Melanie Testa and so may other talented artists. WOW…just pinched myself, and I really am awake and it really is true!
