Poems describing each fabric are letterpress printed opposite the laser cut illustrations."The conversation about this collaboration began last spring near the east shore of Lake Michigan at Oxbow during the Paper Book Intensive. Lee Emma Running and Denise Bookwalter were both instructors and participants for the first time. They taught each other and learned they worked well together and shared a common interest in pattern, texture, and textiles. A long distance conversation continued over the year and culminated in a one-week spring residency at Small Craft Advisory Press, part of the Facility for Arts Research at Florida State University"--From Vamp & Tramp Booksellers website (viewed September 23, 2015)
