JOHNNY CASH: THE LIFE
HILBURN, ROBERT
Although part of his life has been told on film, there are many compelling layers to his story that have
remained hidden--until now. Robert Hilburn tells the unvarnished truth about a musical icon whose
personal life was far more troubled and his artistry much more profound than even his most devoted fans
have realized. As music critic for the Los Angeles Times, Hilburn knew Cash well throughout his life--he
was the only music journalist at the legendary Folsom Prison concert in 1968, and he interviewed him
extensively just before Cash's death in 2003. Drawing upon his personal experience with Cash and a
trove of never-before seen material from the singer's inner circle, Hilburn gives us a compelling, human
portrait of one of the most iconic figures in modern popular culture--not only a towering figure in country
music, but also a seminal influence in rock.

KAFFE FASSETT'S QUILT GRANDEUR
FASSETT, KAFFE
In this collection, Kaffe Fassett presents 20 all-new patterns and collaborates once again with quilters
who have become household names: Liza Prior Lucy, Roberta Horton, Mary Mashuta, and Brandon
Mably. The new quilt patterns are based on Kaffe's signature line of Rowan fabrics, and employ an array
of the latest designs. Liza Prior Lucy's Dreamy Hexagons pattern features Jupiter, an irregular, organic
stripe. Kaffe has gone for rich colorways, cut up small, in his Overlapping Squares quilt. New fabrics
Daisy Chain, Mad Plaid, Lotto and Trellis and Nets are shown to great advantage in Brandon Mably's
fresh and charming child's quilt, Paper Dolls. On trend colorways of pink, turquoise, lavender and red are
featured throughout the book. Complete instructions for creating each museum-quality quilt are included,
along with tips and techniques that Kaffe has gathered in his more than 30 years of experience.
