Back in the groove...

 ...sure feels like a good thing.  I finished a slipcover for the star book,


and it fits as though they were made for each other.  😉


The papers are well in progress for the second star book,


and I've even gotten back to embroidering dryer sheets, and there's a phrase that I bet not too many people have used.

Once finished, slip stitches removed, they will (finally) grace the ensuite bathroom as curtains.  I'd hate to tell you how many months ago that project got started.

The great thing about being in the creative doldrums is that when one gets out of them it's akin to taking flight.  Here's to the sea change!  I hope that your creative week has been just as exciting.

It's been a week...

 ...of book-making-related projects, as I finished my first star book by adding all of the inserts and enhancing the bases of the pockets.  While I've not yet made the slipcase for it, that's likely to happen this week.









I did manage to make a couple of slipcases this week, finishing the piano hinge case


and creating the case for the Japanese Stab Binding book that started this whole craze.  It needs some embellishment on the front of the case, yet to be determined, but the form is done.  


I'm pretty sure that if I do another thirty or forty cases, I'll have my head wrapped around the relationship between all three dimensions.  😂 

How'd your week gone?  Catch me up in the comments, my artistic friends!!
