Journal for a friend
I was asked on Saturday to make a journal for a mutual friend going through a serious illness.
It went out in the mail today.
I am learning / practicing conservation book binding, it is something I hope to get really good at some day and do it on a commission basis for Maxam Made and for local printers and artisans. But for this project because of the time constraints I went with an wire binding.
I made this 8x10 size and used 60# watercolor like paper so that this really would be an all purpose journal.
I used a Mariposa Stack as this friends favorite color is Orange and I wanted to be really cheerful
This is the cover
I added pages with pockets
One of the pockets I added a lot of the scrap pieces for her to incorporate.

Hopefully this will be a blessing! She has a tough road ahead , the journal came with love and prayer!
I hope you are having a great day!
Thank you for stopping by
