Book review. The Quilter winter 2023. Quilt inspired by Maximo Laura is the result of a collaboration between quilter and textile artist, Rosalind Johansson, and award-winning Peruvian tapestry Weaver, Maximo Laura. The book explores, in detail, Laura's background and work including useful explanations of the Andean traditions and symbolism used within the vibrant tapestries, and is well illustrated throughout. The reader is taken on a journey following the life of Rosalind Johansson to the point of meeting Maximo Laura and becoming inspired by his work, which has resulted in the beautiful collaboration. It invites you to explore the intersection of two artistic worlds, tapestry and quilting. There are two step-by-step projects plus design templates allowing you to craft your own Peruvian inspired quilts. Containing fascinating stories and beautiful photographs, this is a lovely and unusual quilt book which would make a welcome addition to any bookshelf or coffee table.
