Fabric journal wander

Hi beautiful

What a wonderful world of textiles we live in! 

One of my projects this year is inspired by a wild group of women who love their textiles. The project is a fabric journal with the pages reflecting a different theme. The themes to date are "Words on the Page" and "Lace".

Here's what I've created for the first theme, "Words on the Page".
Page 1: Postcard - front
The front of the postcard depicts a village by the water, visited on a holiday. A cheery hello is sent by the happy holiday maker.
Page 2: Postcard - back
Quickly written words describing ever so briefly the fun and discoveries while on holidays.

The following two pages in the signature move to school days.
Page 3
Scissors and glue, crayons and printing, a ruler - memories of the first years at school. Mind you, I don't remember too much of the scissors and glue fun!
Page 4
Learning to print on lined paper with a pencil. The joy of written words has begun.

For a flip through these 4 pages and a description of how I constructed the pages, check out my video clip.



Thanks for dropping by!

Love Cara
