Grow Altered Book

I created 5 mini-quilts with flowers for my theme.  Next I mounted them into a prepped board book.  On the facing pages I colored with a variety of mediums adding a quote to each page.

Adopt the pace of nature her secret is patience. 

 Ralph Emerson

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

Kahil Gibran

Nature is the Art of God.

Thomas Browne

If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.

Buddha

I used my own hand carved stamps for some of the backgrounds.  Buttons, jewelry, lace are all used things I have collected over the years.
