In The Mood

Older readers will remember books of this genre that we learned to read from in grammar school.  Who could forget Dick and Jane?  Months ago I gutted this thing, covered the spine with shiboried fabric, and relined the interior with hand painted end papers.  I'd also torn the watercolor paper pages then as well.

In a slot of time between other projects on Wednesday, I was in a mood to bind a book ~ so I did, using a Long Stitch variation.  The book is 7 x 5-3/4 inches and sports six signatures of watercolor paper with two folios each.  I have no idea at the moment what I'll use it for.
