Affirmations are powerful words meant to influence how we see ourselves and our surroundings in the present. In an over stressed and hectic society, we owe it ourselves to boost the spirit with powerful thoughts. This coloring book was created to inspire you to live a life more in line with your own visions. More and more adults today are taking their free time and creativity and focusing it on the time treasured art of coloring. Coloring is a form of art that we are all familiar with, most likely from the days of childhood. It has been realized that there is so much pleasure in this creative process that it deserves to be revisited in adulthood (that is if it were ever left behind in the first place). Coloring provides an outlet for creativity and expression that we do not often have in the other aspects of daily life. Unlike other forms of art, coloring does not require a practiced skill or perfected technique. All you need is a little bit of free spirit, a vision and something to color with and you are suddenly able to create beautiful images. This book of affirmations combines the healing capabilities of coloring with the positive power of words. When combined together the result can be transformational. Each image in this book was created to bring a positive message into your life, while surrounded each word with design and character that suits its meaning perfectly. When you were a child, you ignited your imagination with a box of crayons and book. Today you can do the same, and enrich your life in the process.

Denyse Schmidt: Modern Quilts, Traditional Inspiration: 20 New Designs with Historic Roots (Stc Craft / Melanie Falick Book)
Denyse Schmidt is one of the leading quilters of the 21st century. Known as a “modern” quilter, she actually draws much of her creative vision from quilts of the past. In Denyse Schmidt: Modern Quilts, Traditional Inspiration, Schmidt pays homage to the quilters and quilts that came before her. Each of the 20 traditional quilt designs she has reinterpreted here (among them are Irish Chain, Mariner’s Compass, and Orange Peel, to name a few) is introduced with a lively overview of the pattern’s history. Instructions are illustrated, templates are provided at full size on a pullout pattern sheet, and a complete techniques section is included at the back of the book.
Praise for Denyse Schmidt: Modern Quilts, Traditional Inspiration:
“Denyse Schmidt’s contemporary art quilts are things of enduring style and beauty, but few fans realize her 16-year career as a textile artist began when Schmidt fell in love with tried-and-true, centuries-old traditional quilt patterns . . . Modern Quilts, Traditional Inspiration is the artist’s return to this fertile terrain, featuring her colorful and updated take on 20 time-tested designs. Full-page photos of gorgeous quilts full of those bold geometric shapes that first inspired her provide ample motivation, while detailed instructions, a pull-out book of templates, and a section detailing tools and techniques offer plenty of how-to support, even for novice makers.” —American Craft Magazine
“The book contains 20 traditional quilt styles that look exceptionally modern, hip, and fresh, with limited color palettes and minimal use of prints. To me, it is the best of both worlds—tried-and-true patterns with stories to tell, interpreted by this talented woman who helped define modern quilting. The modern/traditional debate is moot here, which is refreshing and wonderful.” —Sew Mama Sew!
“It’s been 7 years since Denyse Schmidt’s first book, and believe me, this new volume was well worth the wait…Whether you consider yourself a traditional or modern quilter, there is plenty of inspiration here, in projects that play with the tantalizing pairing of vintage patterns and contemporary colors. Although Denyse explains the origins and alternate names of many of the patterns, she rarely offers them straight: she riffs off old patterns like Mariner’s Compass and Wagon Wheel and strips them down to stark basics.” –Meg Cox, Journalist, Author, and President of the Alliance for American Quilts
“Denyse Schmidt never ceases to inspire us . . . We are very excited to announce her latest book, the simply breathtaking Modern Quilts, Traditional Inspiration. Delving back to the traditional styles that first sparked her passion for quilting, Denyse gives these twenty quilt patterns a modern spin with bold, beautiful fabric choices.” —The Purl Bee
“In this book, [Denyse] shows off a new gamut of wonderful quilts . . . She writes in such a quiet and contemplative way, reminding me that quilting at its best isn’t meant to be done in a hurry to crank something out.” —Spoonflower.com
