above is the front facing page - I love this photo and it looks to me that she is dreaming of travelling to far away places..... and below is the back facing page - the pom-pom trim is vintage, the picture is one of a mediaeval traveller.... like I said, there are a few more bits n pieces to add, then I have finished.

above is the front cover. I put a vintage ribbon tie to close the book. This is my first attempt at printing on fabric. I used an old linen pillow case to print on - there are age rust marks on it which gives a real old feel
above is the inside of the cover. I pinned an instruction tag. The right hand side is my first page. vintage fabric as a background and vintage lace edge.below is the back of the first page and the 'sign in' page. I didn't do a real sign in page but left it up to each person to add a little something if they wish - that represents their own theme
The inside cover - both front and back insides are the same. As the method of sign in, I ask that each person decorate a tag that I have provided and tie to one of the buttons with coordinating ribbon or fiber -
This is my page. The embroidered piece is from my stash, it is all hand done, although I didn't do it - wouldn't have the patience for something this detailed. You can see a bit of the gold rings in the center spine of the book. I ask that you attach ribbon or fibers to your pages and just tie them into the 3 rings in the center to hold them in the book.
I will send complete instructions along with my book. I hope that everyone will feel free to be creative. My opinion is that if artists are left to create within their own guidelines the art will truly reflect the artist and not only be more enjoyable to create, but more enjoyable to admire.
