  Scrapbooking and quilting are each hugely popular industries. Combine them both and you have a collection that will fly off the shelves. A scrapbook gets put away; yet a quilt goes on display - perhaps framed and hung, or draped over the sofa. These 24 original quilts incorporate the same treasured photos and memorabilia that normally go into a scrapbook, but in a unique format. They're fun to make too, thanks to the many innovative techniques that are easy for a beginner and refreshingly new to the experienced quilter. You can direct-print favourite pictures onto fabric with an ink-jet printer. It features tea-dye material to make it look antique, creating a perfect background for vintage photos. The extensive opening sections on art and design basics provide a plethora of invaluable tips.
