Susan and I have given ourselves until the end of January to finish these books - we have both been travelling and then of course its Christmas and New Year and summer time here in Oz.
Even tho its a while away, I have been thinking about it and doing little bits here and there. I think I have nailed the design, and the covers and how the pages will incorporate both of our work.
I think have the scale right and I think I have solved my 'floating' words problem.
Of course, all of this is yet to be tested, but at least some of the thinking is done.
I much prefer this look to the stitched look I was trying out earlier. I was playing with a leftover perplex page.
Floating rather than tethered?
And this is what the back looks like.
Working on cover ideas...
Looking at the possibilities for the pages...
Hopefully it wall all come together with a rush and a roar in the new year!

the perspex page is a great solution Fiona, love the back!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mo - I think it might just work! Ordered the perspex pages yesterday...
DeleteIntriguing ideas. Love the way you work through things Fiona to see a project realised.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lesley - it can be a lengthy and protracted process at times I must say. Hopefully edging closer to resolution with this one now, she says until it all falls apart!
DeleteThis is just amazing. I'm always fascinated by seeing your process and watching things develop ... I just wish I had your knowledge and skills ...
ReplyDeleteYou are very kind Margaret/Charlton! My process can be quite convoluted at times, but it is nice when you have the time for the ideas to arrive without being pushed or prodded too much. I enjoy observing and sharing the process - it fascinates me as well!
