and lyrics, they have merged talent with imagination to create
beautiful works of art. Accompanied by 169 images, this book provides a
personal narrative from each artist. Discover the stories behind their
quilts and why certain songs were chosen. Read some of the personal
memories the artists have of The Beatles, and hear many descriptions and

that happens when artists are challenged to use songs and fabric, lyrics
and thread, and love for Beatles music combined with a passion for
stitching. This book is a great resource for both art quilters and music
lovers and a wonderful keepsake for the Beatles’ fan.
