Handcrafted Letterpressed + Embroidered Book
Hand drawn, cut, embroidered and printed by me, this book uses a poem to tell the dramatic story of hiking through the mountains, weathering a storm, and what we discover on the journey.
As the reader flips the pages, they will encounter paper cut outs on the front and back cover, embroidered pages, and layered paper + vinyl-cut images.
I created this book in 2019, as part of the Book Arts program at Scripps college.
