Headband Loving

Either brave or foolish, I have posted my first attempt at stitching a headband for all the world to see. Last week, three of us met to learn how to make a headband. After some frustration, some pride, and much laughter, we each were successful.

Are they perfect? No. Do we care? No.  The three of us were encouraged enough to keep practicing. Inspired by the book Headbands; How to Work Them by Jane Greenfield and Jenny Hille and some beautiful photographs found on the internet of book artists who'd made headbands a part of their art, we made our first steps.

It is another component in creating books. I will get better at this and will post more complex headbands as I learn. That's a somewhat sort of firm promise, kind of.
