Making a book for textile historians has been very exciting.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFgU-3oQWWS5CpxQSPpn8YWw1vNjP8SoV4_CT0ysYuJroRyNIRgVhj5Wx_BugGdQAIPjJjDE8PHhNgxqvmrmmNPG18hkFlXH5xLnxBd63DViQQj76L0C4KzZdLJFE6RIMHYCHJ7SfPdkQ/s0/26Aug_2women_B.jpg)
When I begin a project I usually review the history of the textiles and their conditions. I ask a few questions such as: Will these fabric stand the test of time? Do I have to cut around designs? Do I have enough "archival" textile to make a whole page or do I have to collage the remnants with other materials?
For this book, all of the fabrics are in perfect condition, which allows me to design interesting prints. I should be finished in a week and look forward to posting.
