RECORD KEEPING

My quilting career has extended for over 30+ years. Until I retired from travel teaching in 2016, most of my work was documented in books I wrote for quilt publishing companies. Additionally, my work appeared in books of other instructors as well as scores of quilt magazines. That's a lot to be thankful for, especially since I didn't have to hire professional photographers!!

Since then, I've kept photo files (generally photographed with an iPhone)of my work made exclusively to sell. Wanting a more professional look for in-person meets, I turned them into "portfolios" that could be shown to perspective buyers. Being not all that techy, finding a company that had 'easy to use' software to submit for printing was essential.

Prestophoto.com was my answer. It allowed me to compile photos/text in my (Mac) word processor program and download to their site. A few other decisions (like soft or hard cover, choosing jpeg. for cover photos etc.) were easily completed. Within 2 weeks, Volume 3 Mary Stori Art Quilts was in my hands.

It's a marvelous way to keep a record of one's work....or even family photos etc. I am not in any way connected to this business, mentioning it only as a resource I was satisfied with.
