Button Hole Stitch

Ella and I completed our books today! Original Instruction Credit to: Helen Shafer Garcia and Kieth A. Smith, Volume 1 Non-Adhesive Binding, Books without Paste or Glue. Mine is the hummingbird book on the left and Ella Whitehead's Steampunk book is on the right.

Envelope Book and stamps

This is my completed humming bird stamp. I used the remnants to carve some flowers and leaves to decorate the paper bag books.

The books were made from instructions in Alisa Golden's, Making Handmade Books.

Hummingbird

In progress. This hummingbird is carved into a speed ball speedy cut. It is 4.5 x 4.5 inches. I stopped because I wasn't sure if I want to have the humming bird alone or with flowers. I decided to do the flowers separate.
