And we're both finished!
Here's mine as it was yesterday:
The edged bound and trimmed, or should that be trimmed and bound? There was an awful lot of measuring and checking and checking and measuring before I took the scissors to it.
I left it folded and pegged around the book overnight. This is the front.
It's a soft cover Moleskine ruled notebook with about 200 pages, or 400 sides, which should last me a long time! I'm working at catching up with writing everything that's on screenshots and bits of paper into my current notebook, so that I can start this one as soon as possible. I find it difficult to be disciplined about finishing off one notebook before starting the next, as my shelves of half-empty notebooks and sketchbooks can testify.
Ang finished her Cover Story a few days ago and blogged about it here. It looks wonderful, do go and look.
I had an intriguing looking packet from her in the post today; A card, a flat gift of a lovely leather book mark with a little pewter Canterbury Pilgrimage scallop shell and... the doings for our next collaboration. We're off; the official start is 1st August... what's the betting that both she and I will have started before then! My mind is buzzing with ideas. I should jot them down in my new notebook (aha, an excuse to start it!) before I forget them...
Music
To celebrate the finish of the Cover Story Collaboration; the Fanfare from Janacek's Sinfonietta;
Berlin Philharmonic and Simon Rattle.
It's lovely to finish a project and how attractive they both are. It's exciting to start a new idea. We're all waiting to see the beginnings!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy our collaborations, especially this one which has resulted in something we can actually use.
