Quilt It For Keepsakes Magazine

Yesterday I received my copy of Quilt It For Keepsakes magazine. This great magazine is published once a year in December and shows many ways to create memory quilts.

I have 2 little projects in this year's edition of the magazine. Little Cowpoke is a picture of my brother taken many years ago when the pony came around the neighbourhood and all the kids had their picture taken. I printed the photo on EQ printables fabric and then incorporated it into some pre-printed fabric. It is shown on the left in the photo below.

My other project is called Ancestors. It is the brown/beige quilt in the picture below. Actually, I call them my instant ancestors because I really have no idea who the people are. I collect antique photographs and often use them in my work. This is a small piece about 9" x 7".

Both of these pieces are in the article called Picture This on pages 12 - 15 in the magazine. The magazine was printed with 2 different covers this year. The other cover features a beige and pink quilt. The magazine is conducting a survey to see which cover is more popular. Details are included on page 4 in the magazine.
