I wandered over here from nervousness, its Faegirl.
I made a sad looking book last night :) I got the stitch wrong and its all wobbly. But still functional. So I'm going to just use it for random stuff. Going to try again tonight.

Re: Hi
09/25I'm going to take a few pictures tonight and hopefully make another one with better paper. I think I know what I did wrong the other night :)

Re: Hi
09/24Isn't it great, though, you can make these imperfect books, but they're still *books*, and you can use them without fear, cuz you can just make another one. That was the coolest revelation when I started binding. -

Re: Hi
09/24It's great to make imperfect books! They're the only ones I ever actually use! I'm too scared to write in the others in case I spoil them! That's one reason why I'm doing a craft fair - to get rid of the mnay books that I can't stop making but may never use! -

Re: Hi
09/24Reed & leslie, you are so right! I get scared to use the pretty ones and end up giving them away in the vain hope someone else will!

Re: Hi
09/25I know! I was worried that I wouldn't be able to turn the pages, but its fine other than the spine being weak.
I love it :)
