If Quilts Could Talk: My Quilts, My Stories by Aisha Lumumba

Congratulations to Aisha Lumumba on her 2nd quilt book!  I love how she is taking her quilts and making them available to a larger audience who may not be able to see them in person or on exhibit. Add to your library "If Quilts Could Talk: My Quilts, My Stories" by Lumumba. This 32-page, full-color book features five quilts inspired by real-life adventures from Lumumba's childhood in rural Georgia.  This book is first in a series!   

You'll see how Aisha used one of her quilts for the cover. Don't you just want to DANCE with these two sisters?  She also used Microsoft Word for the interior. You can do this, too!  Enjoy!
