Synopsis

Centred on the idea of “raiding the attic”, this book shows how family keepsakes and fragments of history can be reworked into quilts and other stitched projects that connect past and present. It guides you through reimagining vintage materials as wall art, sewing notions and gifts, with embroidery used to add depth and detail to each piece.

Clear instructions are provided for five projects, alongside fifteen stitch techniques and a gallery of ideas designed to spark further variations at home. Suitable for readers interested in combining memorabilia, fabric and hand embroidery in creative, display-worthy makes.
