"As a master teacher, Timna breaks down color theory and her design process allowing quilters to make their own special customized quilts. This book is loaded with tips, techniques, and inspiration you can use for projects beyond mosaic quilts."

Pamela Weeks, Binney Family Curator, New England Quilt Museum
"In Mosaic Quilting, Tarr shares her unique vision and method for creating pictorial quilts. The techniques are clearly, thoroughly and beautifully explained. It is rare to present expertly detailed instruction on color, value and composition, and the exercises are carefully crafted for the users' success. The section on auditioning and selecting fabrics is the best I've seen. Highly recommended."

Blair Stocker, Wise Craft Handmade
"In Stitched Mosaic Quilting, Timna shares her best tips and tricks to make a beautiful quilt from a favorite photograph. She shows us how to combine bold colors and patterns and create really beautiful portraits. By pairing both improvisational techniques with a little structure, she makes sure we aren't staring at a "blank canvas" and not sure what to do next. This book gives me so much inspiration to do something with all those cute pictures I have on my phone of my cat!"

Sam Hunter (MFA), Hunter's Design Studio
"It's so exciting to hold a masterclass from Timna in my hands! This book is packed with abundant examples and how-to pictures, as well as robust troubleshooting sections. Timna is a whiz at color and value, and her chapters covering this impart so much helpful info for ALL your quilting projects to come."

"Timna Tarr is the master of mosaic quilting."

Sandra Sider, Editor of Art Quilt Quarterly
"Timna Tarr's advice to "think in layers" is the core principle of her book sharing tips and tricks for photographic quilt art. While many readers will appreciate her projects included at the end, everyone who uses Stitched Mosaic Quilting will benefit from the author's comprehensive yet easily readable advice about composition, color, and fabric construction. Obviously, she loves what she does, generously enabling others to interpret their photos as quilted imagery with confidence and originality."
This fun spin on the tile mosaics of old will render almost any photo into a fabric masterpiece.
