Papery goodness

Thought I would share some pictures from my day of papery goodness last weekend, making books, spinning yarns and scoffing chocolate with the lovely Rachel Hazell (hosted by the also lovely Fiona Pattison). There is something about white linen thread against textured white paper that I just love, don’t you?

 

 

This workshop was the first in a series which will be featured in a book by Rachel, ‘The Travelling Bookbinder’ – check out this video to hear more about her project – and why not go and take one of her fabulous workshops when she is near you?

    I am only 20. I found your blog while looking at japan stuf. My boyfriend has huge dreams in life. But since we are so young, things will only get mote and more expensive and careers harder to do what you love in a place you like. I’m afraid that our life will only be an uphill struggle and we won’t be able to have adventures like you. I have never left the southern U.S.

  3. I love these pictures.
    Last year I signed up to do a bookbinding course and was really excited about it. Then I received my money back as the course was cancelled because not enough people had signed up. Now I’m into other things :) , but would still love to something like this one day.
