This exquisite-exquisite-exquisite piece arrived from Marie last month and blew me away. Others have written of Marie's book far more eloquently than I could, but here are her pages of this edition, with apologies for camera/scanner: 

The rest follow in two comments. Thank you again for this incredible gift, Marie.

All your wows, Svenja, sound like the day it arrived--wowowowowowowowowowow. I couldn't believe it. Your word "symphony" is perfect, Kat. It's such an inspired piece, with so many facets, and they do work as some kind of visual and textual symphony. Yes, it is wonderful to hold, as are all Marie's works. It's special to have so much at once, in one piece!

What a symphony in white and cream, with gentle textures and sliced text...and threads that bind it all together in harmony and beauty. Fantastic, Marie! and beautiful photos, Nancy. Oh, to be able to touch its pages! xxx

Didn't need two comments. Blogging details are a surprise no matter how many times you do it!
