Floorquilts!

Book excerpt: Turn your favorite fabrics and quilt patterns into practical, durable art with twelve no-sew projects including floorcloths, placemats, and more! Easier to make than a conventional quilt or a painted floorcloth, a Floorquilt is the perfect way to turn the fabric you love into a masterpiece you can use. Ellen Highsmith Silver teaches you the simple decoupage techniques you need to transform a piece of canvas into a beautiful, durable floorcloth—plus coasters, placemats, trivets, serving trays, and even dbookmarks! Each project features illustrated easy-to-follow instructions. Ellen guides you every step of the way, from choosing raw fabric to applying a protective finish to the completed Floorquilt. Lots of how-to photographs and inspiring examples
