I have no idea what I'm doing, but it seems time has come to have a blog. I don't mind, really, but I feel bad already because I know I will probably never keep it up, and then I will feel guilty, and you know....
BUT, in the meantime, before it falls apart, I will give it a go.
I finished my first leather-clad book yesterday. Yowsers and yikes! Leather does NOT like going around corners! I'm sure there is some kind of miraculous, genius technique that makes all that crumpled up cow skin lay down pretty and smooth for some other people, but NOT for me!
I only took a couple of pics of the WIP, so I have little to offer.
Here's the start of covering the boards with leather. I glued on chipboard letters to give dimension to the leather on the front cover.
But I am quite happy with the book, despite it's flaws.
