Five little books, five pages. It's a start. My aim is to cram these little books with samples....like this.....in readiness for France. There will be doodles, scraps of cloth, snippets of stitched samples, printed images, torn paper, lined paper, graph paper, all kinds of things to hopefully feed creative thought and process.

These little books will be completed in a relaxed manner, an hour here and there. I'm not going to set off on a marathon of page filling all at once. If I take a more relaxed approach I hope they will evolve more naturally, unexpectedly.

I didn't make the little books. I bought them from my friend Kaija. I have her permission to use them in this manner, to alter them, to create tiny sample books and  hopefully sell them. You can find these little books and other wonderful things here.... Her shop is so beautiful it's worth drooling over for five minutes even if you don't buy anything.
