Mim I included the envelopes in my Project 26 book and they look great! They add nicely to the book, and as it's a Mail Art project it suits very well.....

Due to language problems - ie misunderstanding  (we've all had them at on or another time :-), Roger de Wint will not be tackling Asemics # 3. I know some of you have started posting - I will try get him to return the work to me - so please let me know who has.  I am very happy to prepare another chapter.  Bruno, true to his word has also returned the pages he has received so far - I got them this morning. I will make a list and let you know whose I have. IF anyone who is NOT participating in book # 3 so far would like to take Rogers place, let me know.

I have 7 chapters including my own and PrettyLily was the first one I received. I have PrettyLily, Bifidus, Imelda, E, Cheryl, and John Bennett. They are all so unit and fabulous. Yes, PrettyLily, the great envelopes might have to be included somehow. Thanks Cheryl for letting us know there'll be instructions as I've never made a book before.

I will be posting a discussion with photo's on how to bind the books once I have a FULL book of chapters that I can use as an example.  So far I am averaging about 7 - 8 chapters per book. At this stage I think it will be a simple 4-hole pamphlet stitch binding.

OMG, I am such a terrible typist!  I meant tutorial.
Comment by prettylily on July 28, 2011 at 9:41pm

Mim, I have only received 7 + my own, of the #2 book.  So I am only half way there.  I think Cheryl has (or used to) a turorial over in the colabrative book thread, on how to bind a book.  I am thinking about also binding the great envelopes when I bind mine together.

 

Lesley, #4 arrived today!  Thank you.  I haven't even started on mine or opened my mail yet.  I'm sure it is fantastic.  :-)
