Fabric book

I am thoroughly enjoying making a five generation fabric book. There is something so rewarding about honouring our family through art. I am just working on this beautiful picture of my mum when she was a teenager, and wondering what her life was like at that time. I love the feel of the fabric and I have used a vintage tablecloth for my background. It is probably about as old as the photograph. I have used The leaf pattern stitches on my sewing machine to enhance the photo.
