A Book of Rumours.

Yay!  I have finally got as far as binding my three Rumours etchings in a book of sorts - a three-page fold-out file format. I attached the prints with split pins to cover pages, which I covered with blue cotton fabric. I used gauze bandage for the hinges. I covered the hinges and split pins on the outside with narrow strips of fabric. Small circles of fabric were attached as 'hubs' on each print, holding red strings to symbolize a network. Finally I attached the title and string to tie up the book. I used my brown paper artist proofs for this book as it is meant as a prototype before I go onto the real thing.  If I have the energy to do it all over again ...
