Portraits for Fabric Lovers by Marilyn Belford

In 2006 Marilyn Belford published "Portraits for Fabric Lovers" on Lulu.com. This 95-page, 8.5" x 11" soft cover book has full-color inside. It retails for $32.68 (yes, a crazy, odd price point). The book has thirteen chapters:

• Introduction
• Choosing Your Photograph
• Posterizing Your Photograph (great step-by-step)
• Tracing and Translation to Muslin
• Line Drawings
• Fabric Choices
• Fusible Web
• Constructing the Face
• Introduction to Threadpainting
• Threadpainting
• Finishing the Quilt
• Gallery of Quilts
• About the Author

Seems like a great instruction book.
