Expand the creative possibilities of your quilting with richly colored fabric made from your own photos-it's easy!

June 10

For many, one of the most intimidating aspects of digital quilting is its technological requirements, but the authors of this book quickly put that fear to rest with their assurance that one need not purchase an abundance of fancy equipment to engage in digital processesInstead, Lura Schwarz Smith and Kerby C. Smith teach you how to make the most of the camera and printer that you already have. Advice is given on how to take the most effective pictures, how to manipulate these images with basic software, and how to print on fabric sheets. Using fundamental design principles, the authors discuss how to combine your digital fabrics with the prints that are already in your stash, as well as more unusual materials like silks and sheers. They also expand beyond the digital realm, encouraging artists to incorporate other surface design techniques into their digital quilts using materials such as inks, colored pencils, paint and markers.
