The cover is made with craft vilene which has been coloured with transfer paints, using my embellishing machine machine, fibres and fabric were added for texture, and then machine stitched. I have taken my inspiration from the colours of Autumn (my favourite season), the machine stitching represent the bark patterns. A metal leaf for final embellishment
The book is made with paper weight 270g/m2, coloured with Brusho, ala Frances Pickering. Images and words have been stamped on a few of the pages with Distress Inks.
