Making Memories to Cherish Forever. Text and paintings by Sandy Lynam Clough (Hardback). Just as the knot at the end of a thread anchors it in a piece of needlework, an individual person can anchor the joy of creativity that becomes part of a family’s heritage. As she shares her own personal stories of creativity throughout her family and the joy of handmade treasures, artist Sandy Lynam Clough invites you to enrich your life through this celebration of creativity and pass the joy on. As you are encouraged to create heirlooms that add beauty to your life, you’ll leave memories for others with a common thread that binds the past and the future with love. Almost every page is enhanced by Sandy’s paintings of vintage sewing memories.
