This awesome book wrap was created by Jan, who brought it in to show us yesterday. Jan is an artist who works with many different textiles and techniques, and I can tell you these photo’s do not do her work justice. Jan made this book wrap for a close friend, using scraps of fabric from her Bridesmaids dresses and her daughters favourte colours. So many hours, so much love, all wrapped up in one gorgeous gift- and you haven’t even seen what’s inside yet:
I don’t have a photo, but the inside of the book is also personalized with a poem and drawing. Wow. Such a precious gift.
We love to see what happens to the “raw” material after you take it home - keep on sharing wih us!

Great looking book. Love the colours. I have recently discovered how much a soldering iron can do for fabric!
Must try a fabric book.

Yeah, lot’s of scope there – lack of ideas not the problem…!
