Altered Book Escape



This is my altered book entitled Escape.  I created it last year and it was accepted into the show Transformations in Georgetown.  I was extremely disappointed in the way the book was displayed there.  I can understand that the curator was a bit intimidated to extend the pages.  But extended they needed to be!  Anyway, I have this book on display at the St. Jacobs Quilt and Fibre Festival.  There is a lot of fibre in this book.  The cover (which you cannot see) is a quilted butterfly.  It was great to be able to extend all the pages since I had enough space to do so.

    VERY intriguing.....so nice that you've had some opportunities to share it....I can't imagine it isn't inspiring to all you view it!

    What a fantastic book! I can, however, understand that it is a challenge to display, especially if there are no instructions for how to do it. I once sent an entry to a quilt show WITH the instructions for how to display it, and no one had paid any attention to it. One should always do it oneself, I guess.
    Or are those butterflies unruly and want to be flying freely around the room on their own accord!

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
