I woke early this morning and instead of cleaning or starting into packing food for my trip I made a box. It's for THEE BOOK. I didn't have enough of the green marbled paper so I used up all my blue *laugh*. I really need a bigger house so I can have room for a true guillotine cutter. *sigh* when we get rich off Rick's teaching job *snort*.
Ah well, here are pics of the box:

Celebration Time!
When you finish something big you should celebrate. Finally, after 3 years and quite a number of mishaps that labeled this project cursed, I finished. To celebrate I want to eat cheese cake or chocolate mouse. I want to watch a fun movie and eat popcorn and red vines. I want to go on vacation. I want to do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight. Sorry, song cue.
I'm not sure what life will be like without this project hanging over me. I do have 2 other copies that need to be bound. One sewn and one not even trimmed down yet, but for now I'm taking a break from book making.
So, with out further ado . . . the bound book for an awesome author.
Bonus bookmarks I tatted.

Bound to Stay That Way
Hallelujah!
The Lighthouse books are bound. It is 2 and a half inches thick, but looking good. I'm less freaked out now. All that's left is sewing the end bands, putting in the end papers, and casing it in. With a little determination I can have it done in 3 or 4 days.
Here's hoping I get the clothing sew in 1.5 weeks. *LAUGH* Pictures to follow when I have the time and can find the camera.
