Book Finished


This was a good learning curve, and I will definitely make some more of these, I would do the rug strips longer and more rows, next time, also I should have used a black base for sewing the signatures to, whilst doing C&G we had to have a book/needle case with every conceivable needle and a description, and yeah after 10 years I got to use the curved needle, it really helped place the cover to the edge of the ragged spine.

Interesting how it shows up Orange, the fabric is a Bronze two-tone taffeta, and the edges show Orange
