Welcome to blog post one hundred, a milestone I had doubts of ever reaching when I started this project. It's not that I didn't want to, but I don't have a good track record when it comes to things like this. But I've really enjoyed working on this and I hope you all have too.
This is a book I recently made for myself. I made it with the cover of an old science book. I liked the cover for its sturdiness and classic design. The text block is densely sewn together so it has a nice weight to it.
I rebound the book with a mix of recycled paper from French Paper and old maps, graph paper and illustrations. I made sure to include a map of Scandinavia to daydream over.
This illustration is one of my favorites, the colors are out of this world. Green sky and purple clouds!
The whole book is sewn together and glued in, so you would never know it was a new book by looking at the outside. Pretty neat.
So thank you everyone for reading, and I look forward to the next one hundred. Happy 100 blog posts!
