Student Narrative
Memoire is a labor of love I made using old clothing and fabric scraps, upholstery swatches, doilies, yarn, beads, and ribbon. I worked in various techniques on each page such as machine and hand sewing, quilting, knitting, beading, drawing with pen and ink, and block printing. The found materials and text work together to express my connection to my home.
