BuildaBook - was paint stitch bead

There are many issues with printing black, I’m finding out. All time consuming!
Here, I’m testing different settings…then printing them out. Yet another learning curve in this BuildaBook journey…..

I’m way behind schedule but almost there with my BuildaBook ‘Blackbird’.
Sincerest apologies to those who were looking out for it at the end of September. There have been one or two unforeseen technical issues….

Let me show you what my little BuildaBooks are all about. It’s an ‘old-school’ activity for children and/or grown ups. Quite simply, you download the pages, make them, read them, colour them and keep them. They’re not what I’d call a rainy afternoon project, more a half term project. Mouse and Butterfly are waiting for you to download from buildabook.uk for £6.00 each.
Blackbird will be available at the end of September 26.

A huge thank you to everyone who called in to see us over the Bank Holiday weekend. We've had many interesting conversations, and lots of interest in our work.
The response to my little books has been very positive with all feedback taken onboard for it's future development. Thank you.

One day down, two to go. Nidd Art Trail continues in Glasshouses village hall. We are a small group with a wide variety of exceptional art.
I loved that a little one tried out my little books today with her Granny. Perfect.
