My blog friend Lovey from Fabric Photo Memories has published a very lovely craft book. She is the writer, photographer, did the layout and got it published all by herself. What an accomplishment, huh?
Lovey was one of my first blog friends who offered her suggestions and help while I learned to navigate the blog world. Since, I've admired her work and dedication to preserving and honoring beautiful African American ladies from the 1700's and early 1900's. She creates beautiful photo collages and essentially is archiving and preserving history.
Meet my friend Lovey
This is the cover of the book. Isn't it beautiful?

Here are some samples of her collages. I simply love the all the materials she uses in her compositions - vintage lace, jewelry, etc - they adorn the photos just so. Don't they make nice hanging photo collages?
Here are some lovelies awaiting their turn.
Lovey also has an Etsy shop,LoveyJ, where you can purchase her original work as she meticulously collects all her material and vintage findings for her creations.
Friends I hope you enjoy perusing Lovey's work. I am happy and proud to call Lovey my friend and hope you have the opportunity to become her friend too.
Thanks my friends!
