My Dearest Friend Agnes

Machine sewn postcard collage on fabric
25.5" x 33.5" x 2"
This quilt-patterned collage commemorates the postcard collection of Agnes Ferry of San Dimas, CA (pictured in the bottom right hand corner postcard). Miss Ferry saved hundreds of postcards written to her from family, friends and suitors between the years 1907 and 1912. The postcards used in this composition were all from her collection. They were generously donated to the artist by John and Sharon Svenson of Haines.
