Book arts an new love

                          






My first attempt at book making! I loved the little knot on the outside.

                      






This was the second attempt just a bigger version and the knot on the inside

 I was learning to put the decorative paper on the book board, I actually really like doing it!

 Corners get a little tricky at times but still good.

 My Japanese Stab books. Bindings from Left to right Tortoise shell, Hemp Leaf, Noble and the four hole.

                                                                     The cloth spin.
