The Green Book

Handmade mixed media book-
this is like a scrap book really with samples of different kinds of art work, found bits and pieces, fabric, stitching, collage, applique, bits from my stash, vintage fabrics etc

The cover is a thick hand painted fabric.


Objects and tags on attached to braid



The fastening is a magnetic necklace......the string of beads goes thru the loop to keep it all together.
