nice work! what has always fascinated me with basket making is that a machine cannot make baskets- a basket can only be made with real hands!! those felted slippers are super, too.
oooh, this makes me want to expand into high school handwork! We have a new public waldorf high her in sacramento, I think the first public waldorf high school in US? What was the book cover made from, it looks like linen... thank you for the inspiration!
this is main lesson book making with the 9th grade. really easy an fun

ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Did you buy special heavy book board for the book binding? Also is that special fabric or would any heavy fabric work?

I`m going to bookbinding with my 9th grade, here in Campinas, Brasil. I`m very excited about it. I know they will enjoy it too.
