Stitched Memories

Book by Tilly Rose - Telling a story through cloth and thread. Vintage cloth, found objects, embroidery and hand stitching are all artfully combined by Tilly Rose to create unique and practical textile artworks that tell a story. Seek out those treasured pieces of fabric, thread, lace, ribbon, buttons, beads, photographs and other items you have stashed away, and transform them into beautiful keepsakes that record a special event, or preserve, display and celebrate a memory of a special person or place.

• Use items you already own or have sourced from elsewhere to make 15 gorgeous projects, including a cloth journal, a lavender heart, a framed collage, a wall hanging and a miniature quilt.
• Learn new skills, such as layering and collage, hand embroidery, creating your own fabrics, transferring your designs to cloth, stamping on cloth, applique, embellishing, patchwork, free motion embroidery and photo transfer.
• Be inspired to create your own beautiful textile artworks that celebrate the lives of your loved ones and preserve your memories for generations to come.
