Book Reviews of Fabric Memory Books: Techniques, Projects, Inspiration

Book Review: Absolutely love this book - so many ideas
Summary: 5 Stars

I have a lot of books similar to this one, but was surprised to find some new and different ideas in it. I don't know how many times I've bought a book in this genre and wish I hadn't. Not so this time. I think it is well presented and written, good examples and some ideas I had not thought of and will probably actually use! So I would certainly recommend it if you've been thinking about playing around with fabric books and journals.

Summary of Fabric Memory Books: Techniques, Projects, Inspiration

Nationally known quilter and mixed-media artist Lesley Riley showcases her own work and that of other well-known designers in a series of unique memory books?all made out of fabric. Scrapbookers will discover to their delight that fabric can do things that paper cannot, and they?ll get instructions on printing and transferring photos; a range of binding techniques for all skill levels; and ideas for incorporating both hand and machine sewing. Riley explains how to make an unbound book, alter an existing one, and make books that have special features like accordion folds and button joints. Among the 24 imaginative projects: a painted fabric scroll; an old-world style canvas travelogue with richly textured brocades, ribbons, and images from classical art; and a machine-stitched collage ?Starbook.?
