ArtsyCrafts 2012 - Fabric Book

This was a very unusual one - me sewing? Luckily it was "messy" sewing!
We made each page on separate squares of backing fabric, and then I eventually put them together this week.
The book opens in an unusual way, as I show and try to explain below. Then I took close up photos of each page.

So first up is the front page


Flip the front page to the left to reveal the next 2 pages




Next, flip the right hand page down


 Flip the bottom page to the right to finish opening the book


Finally the back page


Here are close ups of each page (except the front and back)

  2. What a brilliant book Trish,
    Thanks for letting us see all the details.
    By the way I noticed you're in Cheshire...can you say 'hi' to all my family there.
    I'm 12,000 miles away and miss them ;D

  4. What a beautiful and unique piece of work. All the pages are so different and very beautiful. I know it's sewing but very different to making curtains or something like that! Such amazing stamping and colouring, would like to see it IRL! Superb art work :)
