Despite a really horrible, wet day on Saturday 8th January, the hardy members of North West Book Artists made it to the Quaker meeting rooms in Liverpool for the first meeting of the year. We had generously been given a much larger room than usual to allow for social distancing, and we’d all done a lateral flow test before attending.
Thanks to everyone for keeping us all safe.
Jac led us in making a small star-type book, which she says can be sized up if necessary.
Small books can be much harder to make than larger ones, but we all completed a final version. Thanks to Jac for sharing her design.
Jac also had a good idea for the theme for the next 2 months, which is
“It’ll come in useful”.
How much that resonates with so many of us as we tidy up our working space for the new year ahead.
We also exchanged surplus supplies. This is usual for us in January but we welcome donations, sales and swaps at any meeting.
Progress has been made with Magellan despite the Christmas activities, and soon we shall begin sewing our book.
Our next meeting is on Saturday 5th February when Chris and others will be bringing in cutting dies to see what inspiration they can bring.
If you read this blog regularly
and want to come along and see what we do,
please do come and join us.
