What could be more fascinating than the human face, filled with emotion, mystery, and history? This second book in the Art Quilt Portfolio series celebrates people and portraits, showcasing our expressiveness in stunning quilts created by artists from around the world. The diverse designs, which use a wide range of techniques and materials, are divided into categories that include contemplation, community, family and friends, happiness, historical and literary icons, and more. Gallery sections display the work of more than 100 quilters, while 21 featured artists receive in-depth treatment, including images of their finest pieces and illuminating interviews about their practice.
