BK Twisted
Modern Quilts with a Vintage Twist. This full-color description of the creation of 22 quilts gives contemporary quilters fresh ideas for injecting their works with energy from re-purposed antique textiles, abandoned blocks, and vintage fragments. For each quilt's starting inspiration, a fragment of unfinished vintage quilting was incorporated into a modern quilt aesthetic. The newly-designed past-combined-with-present quilt tops were then shipped to one of 22 contemporary quilt artists, each among today's best longarm quilters. The new, innovative quilts serve as a bridge between the vintage past and the modern present. Author: Mary W. Kerr Softcover, 104 pages.
