Loose Ends

Welcome!  For those who worked on single watercolor papers, we will learn how to stitch all the loose papers into a journal or a book. This is great method to stitch anything together.

I created my own YouTube video, but then found a really awesome artist who has many great videos on bookbinding. My job is to share knowledge with you so you can learn to express yourself. Please view Sea Lemon's link to learn Coptic Stitching. Her tutorial is much more simple and clearer than mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04vt8YfT7XM

I highly recommend you stitch extra blank pages to your project for future art journaling. If you find time after stitching everything together, your writing prompt for this week is called, Loose Ends:

1.    What loose ends do you need to tide up before the Holidays? I know I need to unpack all my boxes since my move to New York before friends and relatives come to visit.

2.    What would you like to accomplish before Halloween? Thanksgiving? Christmas?

Just a reminder, I'm giving away this watercolor kit. Name will be chosen next week, so please share your work on the Secret Page.

Next week, we will work on creating our own Cinderella and her pumpkin.  Print out a black and white picture of a pumpkin; enlarge it big enough to fit Cinderella. We are going to tell our own Cinderella story.
