In December I finished the
cover for my altered book Rooie. I wrote about it here. The cover shrunk more
than I anticipated, so I had to paint the edge of my original cover red. All I
had to do was glue the cover to the original cover with mod podge for fabric.
When it was dry, I only had to take photos, but with a very busy December I
forgot all about it. Luckily Sharon started Beyond TAST with running stitch to explore for the first challenge. It’s a bit cheating, but this embroidery fits
perfectly, especially because I had no time to start something new. All I do
the last months is cross stitching the Australia sampler for my parents,
which I hope to finish in a few months.

I didn’t share all pages from this book, some are just too personal. It’s my first finished altered book
and I’m very happy with it.

Really neat, Annet! Love all hose stitches, and especially like the colour!
