Finally, a good book
A bit early for Xmas but....

I have thought of another way to use that plethora of botanical drawings that I made.  I have enlarged the drawings slightly and am going to put them into a zippered pouch that I will make from 2.5" squares.  Alternating the embroidery with patchwork fabric.  I think placement of the embroidery in the final piece is going to be the part that will take the most effort.

The other thing I have been experimenting with is making some paper.  My daughter needs cards to enclose with her leather work.  For a first try I am quite pleased.

I used recycled paper as my base and then dried leaves and flowers to go into it.

I have to agree.

What lovely adventures - especially papermaking. That's intrigued me for ages, but I've not got around to trying it yet!
