It’s been YEARS since I handbound books, but here are my three new beauties – a commission by Dance: Made in Canada for its 2019 festival in Toronto.

The covers and quilt are made with found paper from the dancers and choreographer Sashar Zarif, and I wrote the poems during the choreographic process in June. I’m really quite smitten. They’ll be on exhibit during the festival – Aug 14-18, at the Betty Oliphant Theatre.

These three hand-made beauties ready for their debut.
