Visual Journal Volume 10
I'm about to finish my current journal and I had been thinking about whether I wanted to do a rebound composition book journal like my volume five volume seven, and volume eight, or just open one I have from the store and use that.
I had no intention to do it, but sometimes a force seems to drag me to my worktable and make me do things.
I was minding my own business, reading blogs on blogline, when I came to Mary Ann Moss's blog . I was sunk. A few days ago she showed another journal she had made in a similar style. I liked it - a lot. This journal of Mary Ann's moved me to action. It was 10:00 PM. Not good. I was up till after 2:00 AM. I didn't even get the journal sewn together last night. I got up this morning, well afternoon, and finished it. My other rebound composition books were sewn together in one big signature. I did this one a bit differently. I made three signatures. Since I was using the sewing machine anyway and since I don't like things slipping around while I'm trying to hand sew, I sewed each signature on the sewing machine seperately. Then I sewed them to the cover with phamplet stitch following directions in Gwen Diehn's Decorated Journal.
