Although there was some apprehension beforehand about making 'Paper Orbs', Rose lead us expertly through the process, using templates to help.
Some lovely results, see photos, and inspiration for making them in different styles and sizes. Chris managed to make a smaller one during the session but it would be easier if the proportions were worked out beforehand. Paper vlues will also differ depending on size. Thanks to Rose for a very relaxing session.
We discussed the possibility of the Magellan scroll being displayed at the Liverpool maritime museum, and Marilyn promised to contact them to see if they might be interested.
The theme of “Biscuit” produced some interesting books; a chocolate one from Frances (actually walnut ink), a Jammie Dodger- inspired one from Jac, and one celebrating tea and Biscuit (the cat) from Marilyn.
Kath showed us a neat interesting book from the previous theme of “round”, and was ‘ volunteered’ to demonstrate it at a future session. We all agreed that a tin of biscuits would make a great exhibit, and so will continue to make biscuit books to add to the collection.
Jac will lead our August meeting with a demonstration of her 'hinge' book.
