13 Journals - Sepia Grandmothers


This book in the 13 Journals round robin was entitled Sepia Grandmothers. It was one of my favourites. I used copies of Victorian scrap that my grandmother collected as a girl, copies of her baby pictures and pieces of vintage correspondence.



Another photo shows her and my grandfather standing in the garden of the house where my mother was born in Azusa, and a vintage postcard of Warren, Indiana, my grandmother's birthplace. She grew up, married my grandfather, and lived there (other than an 8 year homesteading experience in West Texas) until they moved to California in 1920.
