i've always been a "collector" of fabric. i can drive right past the mall with no anxiety, but get me within a few miles of a quilt shop and my radar goes off. in my world, this pile of fabric means an afternoon of fun, especially on this rainy afternoon. so, today i spent some time making my own bookcloth by fusing mulberry paper to the back of my favorite fabrics. i think that they'll make great books...i'll try to finish one today and share tomorrow!
