Update on bookbinding
I am making good progress on my embroidered bookbinding. The blue is all done in my device, and I've started on the cinquefoil - but I am not happy with the way it looks. I'm thinking I'll have to rip it out and redesign it so it's more even. But even so it's good for me to see the progress.
I have also started researching #2. I have one book - English Embroidered Bookbindings by Cyril Davenport, and have another coming via ILL. A third book, and the one that looked the best to me, was denied by the requested library. *pout* But I'll try getting it again - see if someone else has it available. I have no idea what the design will be yet, but will be working on silk fabric in silk thread. Should be pretty and nice.
