Bookbinding 2017

In April 2017, I went on a bookbinding day at the local Archives; in a spanking brand new building.
Above, is the result of my Japanese Stab Bound book; below are the books made by other people. I do love making books; and this one was using a technique that's new to me. I'm loking out for any future sessions they run.
For xmas 2016, I got a new phone; I have just downloaded 4000 photos I took in 2017. Which means I have lots of images to use on here!
I couldn't (still can't!) work out how to post photos from my phone, onto this blog, so facebook has benefitted from the ease of technology. 
I shall try and keep up with this blog, during 2018.

silent woman

I've been silent for months.
There have been a number of things going on here; things that have made the summer a toughie. I'm hoping things get a bit easier now......in 2018.
Exhibitions have been cancelled due to businesses going bust; illness has felled me; vehicle problems; and cats being ill.
And more.
But xmas and the new year brought me a wonderful space, to see friends; to be at home; to rest; to luxuriate in the darkness. To bring in the tree, and light it up.
Today I took it down; wound up the xmas lights; and put it all back into the loft till next year.
Happy new year.
