So here are the nine pages in felt!
and I chose 'as quiet as... a flutterby's flight' and even did that blanket stitch thing around the edges!! Only 3 edges you ask? Well, there are two reasons for that... one is lazyness... do you know how hard it is to turn a corner using blanket stitch? ;) and the other is more practical... I am thinking that when it comes to bind the pages into one book that less fatness on the bound edge will be a good. (that's my story, and I am sticking to it)!!
These are gorgeous, Annette!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the three sides, mostly from a binding standpoint. I'm never sure how a person will bind their swap item, so it's always best to leave that edge plain. Having said that, I'm incredibly impressed with your lovely flutterbies, as well as your sewing.
ReplyDeleteWow, they are beautiful. X
ReplyDeleteSewing should be the same as paper crafting. Perfection would be nice but only G*d is perfect so your best work is your best work. Your pages are really beautiful and anyone would be delighted to have one of them in their book.
ReplyDeleteI think these are delightful!
ReplyDeleteI would have the same story and I would stick to it too...only you are braver than me, I would never enter anything that required using a needle and thread!
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty pages Annette.
