Bookmaking
This was Lucas’s entertainment for last Friday evening: a homemade, hand-sewn blank notebook with a felt cover. His idea. His supplies. His execution. All his.
While I sat watching with my mouth agape and he confidently stitched the cover on, he reminded me that he already had loads of experience with this sort of thing because he went to a bookmaking day camp last summer, where he made two different styles of books.
He then ruled the pages and proceeded to fill them up with fantastical water creatures chaotically drawn in classic, blue ball-point pen ink.

Oh I didn’t know you had a blog. I saw your LJ post. I don’t frequent LJ as much as I used to but I know some people see my stuff there and not my regular blog. I try to crosspost stuff, but I usually forget and sometimes will post it later. I’m pretty behind on my LJ posting now. I’ll add your blog to my blogroll on my blog. 😀
