When I first created this blog I was very interested in papercrafts and bookbinding in particular. I still am interested in both these things, its just I've found out about lots more crafts since then and so maybe I have a little less focus than I used to.
Anyway, this year I have a couple of bookbinding projects that I would like to create and so I thought it might be a good idea to have a refresher, seeing as I haven't really done any bookbinding for the last couple of years.
I've been following @yvettejah for ages and love her projects so when I found out she runs an online introduction to bookbinding, I signed up.
I've just completed week one, although it actually took me two weeks to complete.
I like that we started by just looking at how we can fold books out of paper, no need to sew. It was fun to fold the projects and see how they would come out. Already I'm full of ideas of how I could use them.
Ori Folder
Once we'd played with folding, we created an Ori Folder and a Blizzard Book. I love both very much and again I already have ideas about how I could use them in the future.
With week one complete I'm looking forward to seeing what week two holds. I've already learnt five new ways to make books, and I've got a feeling it's not going to stop there.
