{paper} cream text-weight paper
{binding} modified pamphlet stitch
This book was inspired by my good friend Lisa Beth. I think I should start calling her my muse... She showed me a post card for an upcoming show she's in and the image on the front used fibers in a book structure. The integration of fibers - thread, ribbon, string - into the structure of the book intrigues me. Here I punched a grid into the entire text block, then sewed a variety of threads through, in, and around the pages. The threads each only go through the book once, and all the holes are used on each page... I think this idea will definitely turn into a new book... Perhaps for a show submission.
Book 38: volvelle
{paper} paint samples from the hardware store
{binding} a brad pierced through the three pages
The volvelle is a fun structure, although I'm not sure I figured out how to use the voids to their best. Still, it's a fun concept.
