autumn is in the air everywhere...even in north florida! i don't know how long it will be here, but we've had a nice "cool front" come through our neighborhood, low humidity and a nice ocean breeze. so, autumn inspiration has crept into my studio, and i thought this fabric would make the perfect book to reflect that. construction is the same as the other books that i've made recently. today, i may change gears and get my calligraphy nibs out, mix up some gouache, and get lost in that wonderful sound of putting letterforms onto paper...i'll let you know how it goes.

book dots
today i'm going to the quilt show with my friend eva, but before if go, here's a quick peek at a book that i made using multi-colored dots on black fabric. i printed one of my ACEOs onto canvas and then machine stitched it to the front cover. the inside covers are lined with moss green canson paper and the writing pages are torn from italian velata. i hope i find some really great fabrics today...i'm always in the mood for adding to my collection!
