I thought the $220 dollars for 2 days (10-4) plus $30 for materials was worth the skills acquired plus the fact that we all went home with 7 completed books (well, some stitching still to do on one). I'm quite prepared to spend that amount again on the book box making workshop coming Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04456736523331076619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9619869.post-1146448454934216962006-05-01T11:54:00.000+10:002006-05-01T11:54:00.000+10:00Hey, Val ... they are gorgeous.

That's a puzzle to me, too and I'll let you know when I get an answer from someone. susanSusan Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04243927268209404875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9619869.post-1146441095545182762006-05-01T09:51:00.000+10:002006-05-01T09:51:00.000+10:00I made a few little books when I was at Library Sc...I made a few little books when I was at Library School (in the sixites, God I am old!) and as a treat they sent us to do bookbinding at a nearby college that still had a bookbinder in situ.

Please can you enlighten me?
