Flag Book

We all made flag books at the bookbinding class this week and surprisingly we all finished them.

Mine has some of my wallpaper paste paper on its cover and some nice bright card inside to make the flags.  Afraid you have to be very accurate at measuring and cutting out the pieces for the flags, which is not one of my strong points.

One very clever person used two large photographs (she had looked flag books up on the Internet) and it was really effective.

Someone else made more than 3 rows of flags with plain white paper and the contast of dark and shade gave a really pleasing result.

A longer piece of card allows you to have more folds and thus you can add more flags to the book.
