BookBinding: Joy!
I was seriously beginning to worry but thanks to a YouTube video by BaronessNZ (she is my hero!) I actually finished making a book. I know! ::throws up hands::
So. This is what I wanted to make: ::snort::
This is what I started out with:
And this is what I actually made: The front cover:
The cover pages:
The back cover:
And from the top-down:
It has some obvious gluing errors and maybe the right angles could be a little more to the right but it's done and I'm really looking forward to making more. Hopefully each effort will be a little more streamlined and/or daring. Last night my room looked like a craft stored had exploded. More than usual. If you're thinking of making one I wholeheartedly encourage you to do so. Don't let my original lumpy mess discourage you. It was so great to see it, step-by-step, taking shape and turning into a book OMG!
