5 out of 5 starsBought this book as a heirloom for my daughter. She just started taking her first steps. Looking at this precious little book fills my mind with most beautiful images of the many more steps my daughter and I will take together as she's discovering the world.
Thank you -

A one lady letterpress and bookbinding operation
I started my shop in 2008 after studying and working for other artists since 2006. My studio is located in an old dye mill in the historic Frankford section of Philadelphia. I print all my work on my beloved vintage Vandercook No. 4 letterpress.
Natural history, field guides, Shaker objects, folklore, daydreams, the Arctic, libraries, and children’s drawings, these are the things I think about and why my work looks the way it does.
