Bookmaking

class i did at Mary Ward 2010.  Want to do more with books and boxes but not sure what yet.  A bookmaker i saw at craft fair last year got into Royal Academy Summer Exhibition with a lovely memory book i had loved, and it sold there.  Good see this kind of thing being taken seriously.
My meager attempts:

  1. Janice on my blog has just done a bookmaking course. She got Mary and myself into making simple books. I ended up making up 25 simple books for Mary to use when she gets to Sudan. Janice did the stitching books on her course. When she comes on holiday in January, she is going to show this to me. She is very good at making these books up also, with photographs etc. I'd say scrapbooking, but that gives the wrong idea, it isn't all the cute stuff. I'd call them memory books, and she made me some fabulous ones.
