Handmade Books

Members Day in February provided an opportunity for us to get together on a Saturday at the studio to pursue various projects.  Free machine embroidery,  hand stitching or trying out the embellisher were all available, but most members opted to try making handmade books. Sue generously provided her expertise and materials and this proved to be a very popular and satisfying session with everyone taking a way a completed book by the end of the afternoon.  It was amazing to see how everyone produced such different and personal results, and I think we are all quite keen to make more of these lovely books.  Many members are now keen to try Bookmaking part 2.











Sue brought along many of her own samples which are works of art in themselves and provided a great source of inspiration. All this activity made for a very relaxed and enjoyable member's day and we are now looking forward to our next session.
