Stick a Fork in Me I'm Done
















































































....with my book that is. This book was compelling. It was almost as if I were driven to finish it. I'm thrilled to have completed the book, but feel a little deflated now that it's done. It's like my best friend has moved away. Just a few comments on the finished book: I sewed the signatures individually into the spine using ribbon. I had originally planned on using a different binding method, but I forgot to use an odd number of signatures and had to improvise. It was a happy error because I was able to tie keys to the spine this way (if I could have with the other binding I don't want to know about it). The end pages are textured wall paper that was painted with black, copper and aqua.
