Dimensions - The Legend of the Red Thread

This weekend I was delighted to have a piece of mine, a collaborative piece, with Cathryn Miller selected for a touring exhibiton. It is a book based on the Legend of the Red Thread.  The book uses printmaking o the interior pages, red thread on spools which links to the book and the entire thing folds up into a nice little box.
