CQJP2015 Assembled and finished...

Finished.. and I couldn't be happier with them..

I so grateful to Margreet who introduced me to making books with my blocks.  I love it when friends can actually touch and feel the work.




















I think the ads on the lining worked out well. Here you can glance over the pages... I think I missed a couple but you get the idea..

    Yes great books. I have made one on all my embroidery samplers over the years. How did you put the pages together I am struggling with that.

    I love your block books, Gerry. I have some crazy blocks I am wanting to make a book out of but not sure how to go about it. Still on the drawing board!

    These are so pretty. You've inspired me.

    Are there any tutorials out there to get me started on making a book?
