Notes: The binding is an accordion-fold.  Each leaf of stiff paper is fastened onto a fold in the accordion.  Sample are stitched onto 15 of the leaves.  The samples are 6-inch squares of fabric and paper found in the artist's studio.  "There is stamping and printing anew on some of the squares"--First leaf of text.  Each sample has an identifying caption; the final leaf is fastened to the lower board.

The text is printed on the verso of the leaves.  The book is hinged by the accordion-fold binding at its top and opens like a book of charts.  It can also hang on a wall as art.  When lifted by the top cover the accordion opens and the samples display one below the other.
