Baby Shower Book

My friend Liz is having her baby shower today. In honor of the occasion, I decided to make her a journal using a signature stitch.Book 030

The front, back and spine of the book were made using Binder's board and decorative fabric paper (and of course mod podge). 

Book 015

The inside cover includes a colored piece of paper. I also attached a note for Liz that she can either glue inside this book or keep elsewhere. I wanted to give her the option.

Book 017

The inside pages were sewed together in panels using dental floss. They were then glued into the spine with hot glue.

Book 018

This is the colophon on the back cover of the book.

Book 020

The backside of the book.

Book 026

The back spread of the book.

Book 027

I hope she likes it. I will soon find out!
