Handmade Books Exhibition

You might have read in the past few posts that I have been busy working on the handmade books exhibition "Rags to Riches II" I am pleased to say that the catalog is now finished!

It's exactly a week tomorrow before the opening day, Saturday Oct. 31 at 3:00 PM. I only have to make name badges for the exhibitors and myself as a curator, and hopefully my job is done here on the computer. I have posted the completed catalog on Rags to Riches Blog if you care to have a look.


This is the front page of the catalog. The picture on the cover is a very first book I made. It was a book using one A4 sheet of paper and the covers. For the covers I used discarded dust jacket with Williams Morris design on it. A handy little book to have in a handbag.

Oh wow Nat, looks like a great show......
How do you have time for all you get done and work full time too?
Wish I lived closer to you so I could see this show and learn how to paper craft too.

Happy Sewing
