♥The Book ♥

 After 4 intense classes, 4 hours of folding,cutting, glueing, sewing and pressing , drum roll please ....

Ladies, I would like to introduce you to 'The Book'

 Please note the carefully folded sections which have been lovingly sewn together. 
 May I draw your attention to the exquisite silk 'head band' keeping it all neat and tidy.
 Hey there 'The Book' - are you ready for your close up?

Hold the front page!

I so enjoyed making this, and I am trying to get the teacher to run the class again so I can maybe make a couple of smaller books that I might feel able to pass onto someone else. 
Would make a good give-away right?!  However, this little baby is staying right with it's Mama!

Deb - The Book is absolutely exquisite! I wouldn't let go of it either had I created such a masterpiece.

Hope everything is going well with daughter and son and life is calming back to its normal routine now!
