I love making fabric books. They capture a moment, a snippet of inspiration and allow me to play and practice. When I have a long, draining day at work and don’t feel like my usual creative self, I open a fabric book, feel the textures I created, read the motivational words. I begin to relax and soon I spark myself back into imaginative action.

This is book was started with fabrics by Anna Maria Horner and some images from DJ Pettitt that I transferred to canvas.
