For Autumn 2025, Field Notes presents the 68th quarterly edition, “Fall Flowers,” celebrating three common late-season blooms that don’t get the hype they deserve. Spring flowers get all the press, but the purple coneflower, false foxglove, and common chicory are all still here for us when the days get shorter and colder. Jennifer Farrell of Starshaped Press drew the trio in the decorative style of early-20th-century “publishers’ bindings” and her charming illustrations couldn’t be more pleasing. Additionally, Laura Garcia of Paper Perennial is the artist responsible for the beautiful flower-making in the film that accompanies this release, Coneflower, Foxglove, and Chicory. To emulate the texture and finish of dusty, well-worn cloth books from more than a hundred years ago, the covers are printed with three subtle metallic inks on Mohawk’s new “Midnight Blue” 100#C Mosaic stock with a “burlap” finish. The inside back covers feature a bit of data about each flower.
