I started this fabric book last November. I worked on it in bits and finally dove into it last week.

The book is constructed from felt and flannel fused to a dreamy cotton gauze and a vintage table scarf cut into smaller pieces

I embellished the pages with fabrics, cheesecloth and trims I had dyed pink and blue along with bits of random fabric scraps …

… lots of hand stitching, buttons, wire, metal embellishments, text typed or written directly onto the fabric …

… ideology adage tickets, vintage keys, charms from a previous project, bits of old crochet and knitting.

The quotes in the book are about love, discovery, trust, life, journeys and letting go.
