Small is Beautiful - especially when there are Peacocks!


My latest book.  A little photo album, with gorgeous covers embellished with peacocks and silk... 

...and pretty wrapped edges,

Silk edging on the covers, with a fringe; Japanese style stab-stitch binding in golden yellow linen,  

Deep blue linings on the covers,

Fifteen pages of smooth, pale blue card, pre-creased at the edges, so they don't crumple when you turn the page. 

I love it! It came out just as I hoped it would and I'm so pleased.  Off to work on the next book now - a small guest book with a Coptic binding.  Toodle-pip!

  4. Love this book and quite bizarrely as I was driving to work this morning I came round a corner to be confronted by 4 peacocks walking along the path by the side of the road! My colleague arrived at work 5 minutes after me and didn't see them on her way so I cannot imagine where they went.
