These books were printed and compiled as a representation of my Dutch family heritage and the traditions that have been carried through the last few generations.  My family has been fortunate to have access to a collection of photographs and stories that live to tell the lives of my great and great-great-grandparents in the Netherlands.  These three books are composed of photographs, poetry, fabric, and tradition as my own interpretation of the values that my family has laid for me.
