I haven't made a video in a long time, can you tell? hahahaa! I love this journal. It measures 5-1/4" x 3-3/4" and has eight signatures of 80 lb. sketch paper, each with collaged and machine sewn wraps. I used a shimmery copperish metallic thread on my machine, and it behaved wonderfully. I worked a long time on this one, starting with the painting on watercolor paper a year or two ago, embroidering the French knots on the cover, the collaging, which seemed endless because it's not my forte, the machine stitched borders, and the many attempts at binding. It seemed I was all thumbs until I wasn't.
