Scrapbooking and stitching—two of today’s most popular crafts—come together in these spectacular, memory-preserving quilts. If you could make a time capsule of precious moments in your life, what would you put in it: Family photos? Notes from your children? Grandma’s beautiful hand-crocheted handkerchiefs? They can all become part of a warm and wonderful quilt to wrap up in or display on the wall. One unique pattern features Dad’s old work ties. Another blanket showcases those fun t-shirts you’ve collected over the years, while ticket stubs from fondly remembered concerts make up a musical motif. Or photocopy picture postcards onto fabric and then cut and sew. The instructions for the creative techniques, plus basic quilting guidance, are all here.
