Unfortunately, just as I was getting into John Lennon's music he was gone. Luckily his music has stood the test of time and people still enjoy it today. I have a few of his albums on my list to re-imagine and the first one I chose was his Rock N Roll album.There was something about the cover image that drew me in. The whole background as well as John himself was embroidered in wool thread in multiple shades of grey. Finally, the logo was created in rayon and added as the finishing touch.
