Portfolio > Mixed Media: Collage & Book Art

Pages made from old sewing patterns are embellished with notions gathered from sewing boxes (my grandmothers', my mom's, my friend's mom's). Each page, holding machine stitched ephemera, is assembled and pamphlet stitched to the antique thread cone. The sculpture spins by turning the faucet handle.

Old sewing patterns repurposed into an interactive book that documents sewing work from women in my life.
