Flag Books

This month we made flag books together. I always enjoy making them, partly because they have real movement built in, and partly because they enable us to use up those small bits of paper left over from other projects.

If you want to make one and weren’t able to join us this session, Alisa Golden has a basic instruction in her book “Making hand-made books, 100+bindings, structures and forms”. After you’ve made one according to instructions, you can mess about with sizes etc as long as you keep to the proportions.

We also saw some great books on the subject of Recycle and Renew, Jac’s being particularly admired, and look forward to seeing more of them as time goes on. The theme for the September meeting is “Cuttings”.

Please note that there will not be a Liverpool Book Arts Fair this year as Simon is having a well-deserved year off. Manchester may happen, but no definite details as.
