KC Willis' challenge

KC sent out a challenge to the collage camp members to make a piece using recycled materials. Nothing store-bought except the transfer paper. Use second hand fabrics, doo-dads and trims. Well, I couldn't pass that challenge up! Most everything in my stash is from thrift stores, antique malls, yard sales and estate sales. I've been wanting to do a fabric book, so this was the perfect time to accept the challenge and dive right in. Here is the book titled "Prairie Doves." I wanted it to portray both the cowgirls of the West as well as the ladies of the evening.Here is a pic of the book from the bottom edge. It is filled with fabric, lace, trims and doo-dads.
That's all for this time! Want to get you to come back and see more of the inside pages of this book!

Can't wait to see inside because the outside is soooo inviting. I love vintage fabrics, lace and buttons, and have been thinking of doing a personal fabric book too. This may just be the inspiration I need to get me going.
