Crossed Structure Binding

This was the crossed structure binding we did at last week's creative bookbinding class.  For once I was really pleased with the result.  Everyone else used leather, but I wanted to try something different so this is a piece of Pelmet Vilene covered with various things, including some foil.  I have got a piece of dyed blanket to try too and think it should work rather well and give the cover a lovely soft feel.
