In July, I actually started my project by making the book for the collages. In order to do this I first cut 12 pieces of paper, all the same size. Next, I folded each piece of paper in half. Then, I separated the paper into 3 groups, placing folded pieces inside of each other. Then, I stacked the three groups of paper, and marked where I was going to poke holes that would letter help me to bind the book. After that, I actually poked the holes. Next, I used embroidery thread to basically sew the books together, following a very simple binding pattern. Once, I completed this I had book, but without a cover. In order to create a cover for the front and back of the book, I cut two pieces of cardboard, covered each in white paper, and then each in hand made paper. I decided to leave the spine of the book exposed. Here is how the book came out once I attached the front and back covers.
