Finding my Place...again

Just for Velma, here are a few more photos of the book.  You can see the stitching in one, the 'spread' of a couple of openings and another close up of one of the pages. Double-clicking on the photo makes it a bit bigger and easier to see.

This paper is rusted, but isn't braille paper like I am using for my letters...

  4. I have rusted fabric but never thought about the same techniques on paper. Have so enjoyed reading your blog posts and especially the poem. Wonderful imagery and executed to perfection. Thank you!

  5. Thanks everyone. I love the rusted paper as well - it gives such tantalising areas of interest, of washes, of remnants. I too love the singe page binding. It opens flat as compared to stab bindings...
