The latest book I’ve bound and made has bought turquoise marbleized paper, with gold and brown speckles on the cover. It’s a special bookbinding paper, and it’s beautiful if you ask me. The pages are 80 gram cream colored printing paper, perfect for simple daily writing and journaling. Probably I will want to write in this with my ink cartridge pen? Right now I’m using another journal for writing though, a bought one with red cloth cover.
Magnifik, du ?r s? duktig!
Beautiful book! Amazing paper! The binding looks very professional.
I am so amazed and impressed by the books you are binding. Should you just happen to come thousands of miles to Virginia any time soon and just happen to feel like teaching bookbinding, eh, just let me know. I’m in.
That book is lovely! I love the cover, the colors are really pretty.
that’s so pretty!! =)
Jag har en p? svenska som heter “Stilrent utomhus” och en p? engelska som heter “Pure style” (som fanns p? svenska f?rr och hette “Stilrent inomhus”).
“Pure style living” ska tydligen vara n?n slags sammanfattning av de andra tv?… s? den ska jag nog inte ha. Kolla p? biblan, de brukar finnas d?r och det ?r ju alltid bra att titta f?rst ifall man inte gillar dem.

vacker bok. du är duktig.
O Hanna , I realy love the books you make !
Beautiful!
Hanna, I thought of you when I saw these needlepoint kits on Ebay. They look kind of hard but I might try one, a few stitches here and there.
See the others that this seller has as well. They are based on traditional Hawaiian quilts.
Hej Hanna!
Tack för att du besökt min blogg och för den trevliga komentaren!
SÃ¥ jättefin bok du har gjort!!! är det indet svÃ¥rt? Skulle önska att jag kunde! /Gunnel
[…] The first book for 2008 was a blankie that I bound myself in the beginning of 2007! I made it while I was in a bookbinding class with Charlotte as my teacher. I didn’t think I’d ever be brave enough to fill it, as it was my first hand bound notebook, but when January came I was ready for a new diary. And this one was ready to be written. I don’t know how this happens, but the right time always come to start working in a blank book and then it transforms from “being pretty as it is” to something that belongs to me. I take possession over it. I make it my own. How do I do it? One page at a time! […]
