My bookbinding goal for 2018 is to make at least 50 books. I've got 3 under my belt... so far so good!
I'm pretty excited about the one I made yesterday:

I found an awesome fluffy rosette fabric remnant at the fabric store, and thought I would experiment with it. I wasn't sure that it would work for bookbinding, because I thought the fluffiness might not glue well or might make the inner cover too bulky. But I tried it, and it worked so well!!!

Kind of looks like a strawberry ice cream cloud sammich...

I tried to make the colors of the pages match the dreaminess of the fabric.

I have lots of scraps leftover from cutting those pages, so I might try to make them into a mini cloud book. ★~(◡﹏◕✿)
