“Memories are the stories of our life. This book will inspire and teach how to combine photograph memories with quilting. Lesley Riley's techniques deal with composition and designing elements and provide very detailed photo enhancing techniques using apps. A gallery of memory quilts is also included from 18 different artists. Quilts are passed down through the ages, so combining historical or family photos will really show your life and times to future generations. As we combine old and new textiles, so can new photographic techniques be added to showcase a life or make a statement about issues of our time. This very interesting book has everything you need to create your own memory quilts.”
