I remember how we met

Hand felted wool is the primary material in this book referencing the Burial in Woollen Acts 1666 – 1680 of the Parliament of England.  Between the wool pages of I remember how we met handwritten text printed on silk organza is layered in semi-legible rushes of memory that swell with the death of someone mournfully loved.  These memories and their emotional attachments are neatly buried with the turn of each page.  
 
Hand felted wool, inkjet printed silk organza, machine embroidery, leather cord.  Unique handmade book, 2014.   9" x 11 ½" x 1 ½"
