Suffragette Lace Book is finally finished!

I've spent the last quarter of 2014 mostly creating and leading Spirit Doll workshops. As a 'treat' to myself, I've spent the last few days indulging in my love of lace. So, here is the book....
 Layers upon yummy layer of luscious, delicate, vintage laces. The book measures approximately 9x7" and about 3" thick.
 Many pages have pockets stashed with lacy tags with information regarding the Suffragette Movement, their goals, and some of their quotes.
 All the photographs are printed on cotton. I've tried to capture the tags.
 Many Suffragettes welcomed going to jail to make their point!

MOTHER'S WISDOM... Mixed Media Fabric Book

Do you remember all the words of wisdom your mother imparted to you? Some of these phrases are still with me today. How about you? I'd love to hear your mother's words of wisdom in your comments!

MOTHER'S WISDOM is a heart-touching, mixed media cloth book I created, measuring approximately 4x6" and has eight decorated pages, plus a secret pocket in the back that holds a sweet little mini journal, MOTHER LOVE, with lined pages for you to record your own memories. Hand made with vintage images printed on twill, vintage fabrics, buttons, and trims, all machine sewn onto sturdy canvas.
