Jacek's Book: Painting the Book Block Edges

Day Two 

Things started to get more interesting... I love painting the book edges and I know that Jacek will also like it. I wanted a simple pattern for the decoration that would fit with the content of the book.

My improvised work-table-press :)


More on how to paint the book block edges here, in a post I made some time ago.




And on to sewing the headbands, made of green and ocher silk thread.
 

Tomorrow... the book clasps!
