WOYWW 878

 Welcome to Crafting With Jack and What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a day when we link up to Sarah's Craftshed and have a look to see what everyone has been doing.  

Oh woe is me!  I have a cold!  My trigeminal pain is two steps forward one step back!  Enough of that.  

I watched a tutorial by Margaret of Vintage Journals. I thought I would make one after I had finished tidying my room.


It is getting there.  Corners are the bane of my life!  In one particular corner I had a box labelled "journals" and also a top box was labelled "journals".  Would they all fit in the one box?  Answer no!  The small box is about shoebox size.  In the big box I found several I had made the same type as I was about to make.😳


More journals where the red dots are, incidentally, the picture of the horses is a glass cutting mat which  my daughter brought me home from Australia, I can't bring myself to use it.


It just goes on !!  I watched yet another tutorial for a book: Australian Piano Hinge Binding.  This in connection with a free course that starts in April, the idea is to use the book throughout the course.  Would you believe I have just spent half hour looking for the file because I had named it Sarah Matthews instead of Australian Piano Hinge Binding.😖    She was saying that she finds journal making soothing, just cut and fold the parts and put it all together.  I wondered if that's why I had so many? 


The desk.  I have two rolls of paper to cut up and I bought myself a little sewing machine.

I am just tossing this one in.  These small strips are from scrapbook paper that I keep looking at, but feel they are too thick for my collages.  I had the idea of taking a photograph and printing them on paper and I also wondered about using them as templates for other digital paper.
