Hi there everyone! I know it's been a long time since I last posted here. First I started having problems with my tablet being unable to upload photos, and getting photos from my phone to my big computer takes forever. Second, I got busy with making videos and had so much I wanted to catch up with that it started to overwhelm me. I have finally decided that if it stresses me out, it's too much. So, I stepped away from all social media sharing in December, and have slowly started back this week.<br />

Little by little I made the decision to step back from blogging and do more with videos. So if you're still interested to see what I'm doing, please visit my You Tube channel, Doni H<br />
Located also in my sidebar.<br />
<br />
Let me thank you all for your support and comments and friendship. I'm still available and still crafting, so visit me on You Tube!<br />
<br />
You are all so wonderful!<br />
Blessings and Hugs,<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have had a strange inclination this summer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to try to make a lady's hat!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But not just any hat...it had to be one that I could use my pretties to decorate!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, this was what I came up with.<br />
<br />

As I looked at the piles of boxes the movers left in this room, a basement, all I could think of was: I'll never be ready for next year's Where Bloggers Create Party!!</div>

The walls here are of rough cut wood...splinters and all!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
I've learned a lot in the months I've been working on my craft room.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First, I have to let myself, that is ALLOW myself, to make changes.<br />
I know that sounds weird, but that's the way I work. If I think of one way to organize and it really doesn't work, I need to be able to let it go. Do it another way. And with time (that's another thing...knowing it will take time to work out the glitches), it WILL all get put together the way I can best utilize it.<br />
<br />
Second, I have to take TIME...already mentioned.<br />
It takes actual time spent crafting to know where something best works. If I need to be able to access a drawer with tools in it, then that drawer needs to be handy. If my materials are a long way across the room, then I probably won't want to get up, go over there, and use them. Time wasted, inspiration gone.<br />
Organizing is great, but UTILIZING the space is for the best functioning of the space, and the best use of my TIME!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidkcmgHI3Rza-Lbce8bLz1OF63tnjq48h3WOXiPv7X2lYWeZZRbyNIDxiMxVxkphN43ZV9yzG2cwqyUH4hlM8jNGV4P1wH8g0ms2uYIGQDbCz_Qe5U2-DjN6nwDK8ouN0XFvuHUpS5N9hF/s1600/0711161845_resized.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="616" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidkcmgHI3Rza-Lbce8bLz1OF63tnjq48h3WOXiPv7X2lYWeZZRbyNIDxiMxVxkphN43ZV9yzG2cwqyUH4hlM8jNGV4P1wH8g0ms2uYIGQDbCz_Qe5U2-DjN6nwDK8ouN0XFvuHUpS5N9hF/s640/0711161845_resized.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Third, It's OK to change things around even if you think it's set and ready to go.<br />
Case in point. A tall unit or rack that I own has been used to hold lots of fabric. Well, it doesn't fit into this space. Therefore, I have to figure out how to make the fabric fit in another way.<br />
<br />
I moved my upholstered chairs probably about 50 times! Yes! During the unpacking, yes for sure, but even since then. It doesn't make sense to put it where it is not functional and comfortable.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggW0rLIvnlYU3MT10kMYsXqe5E_ZRKzObcs7Zk8Vze8xRenWFVkkzRUVI80aJYIKuTtLpENj2ZmqvM_7eOUmg9pNtpn_0fHzsCmcl3T8e7z8mWEb0qQZ7cyf7Uo1dlqLrmgggDV-TUVeOb/s1600/0711161844a_resized.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggW0rLIvnlYU3MT10kMYsXqe5E_ZRKzObcs7Zk8Vze8xRenWFVkkzRUVI80aJYIKuTtLpENj2ZmqvM_7eOUmg9pNtpn_0fHzsCmcl3T8e7z8mWEb0qQZ7cyf7Uo1dlqLrmgggDV-TUVeOb/s640/0711161844a_resized.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Fourth, Make it Pretty!!<br />
When I start working on my space, I always have in my mind how I WANT it to look. When that doesn't happen, I work with it until it is pleasing to my senses. If a space needs to be covered, then pull out a curtain rod, rope, whatever works, and MAKE it look good.<br />
Spray paint covers a lot of ugly too!<br />
<br />
Fifth, Have fun. Enjoy looking through each and every box or jar at all your saved pieces. Familiarize yourself anew with what you have on hand. Put it out, pack it up, whatever, but enjoy this process.<br />

<br />
And you'll probably need to realize that it will change again.<br />
Needs change, favorites change, sometimes we just need it to be CHANGED!<br />
That's OK. Giving myself permission again to change things. Seems like that's all I do!<br />
So, after all the effort put into it, I can finally say, I love it. It's time to get busy!<br />
I hope you each have a spot to call your own! It can be a whole room, or it can be a small spot, but make it YOURS. Make it fun, make it inspirational to YOU. You're the one going to be using it after all!<br />
<br />
Thank you for taking the time to look through my craft room!<br />

Blessings,<br />

There it was, midnight, and an idea struck me that got me super excited! A way to cover those awful looking office chairs! Down to my craft room I go, a few hours of glueing, snipping, and pinning...and three chairs now are well on their way to looking wonderful! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been very busy getting my new craft room unpacked, sorted and ready for this year's party for Where Bloggers Create!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Karen Valentine is once again hosting this fun party, and you are all invited!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not only to see what others are sharing, but we want you to join too!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I HAD to take photos to share with my blog friends!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Good Ol' Days!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When women dressed up, did their hair and makeup, and carried beautifully beaded bags for a lipstick and compact.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nowadays those gorgeous bags are eye candy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my collection (so far), and a new twist on a possible wedding gift idea.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a few dear friends who have become close enough to refer to as 'sister'.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As time goes by, emails shoot back and forth, prayers and thoughts are shared, we have become closer to each other, and as a special birthday gift one year, I made a Lace Journal Book for one special sister.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And she made one for ME!!<br />
Now three years later, I am posting the photos as well as the You Tube video I made. You can <a href="https://youtu.be/2pBraT005I0" target="_blank">find it here</a>.<br />
<br />
This book was made for me by my dear friend Wilma, from the Netherlands!<br />
<span id="goog_1737902891"></span><a href="http://shabbyroyale.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">You can find her blog here.</a><span id="goog_1737902892"></span> Be sure and have a look...she has so many beautiful projects she has shared!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Just the way it sounds, this little oval book is full of cabinet card cuties I found</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on Pinterest. They are so adorable, who could resist?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Made on a foundation or base of felt put together with hot glue, it was a quick and easy way to make a cute book that is full of lots of laces and trims.<br />

The Perfect Size Lace Book<br />
<br />
It is my first try at making a lace book this size. And it fits just perfectly in my hands! Lots of fun to make. The images are some beauties too!<br />
<br />
I decided on a smaller size to use for the base of this book, 4 1/4 inches by 7 inches.<br />
This one is rectangular shaped.<br />
I also made an oval shaped one of the same dimensions and made a You Tube video<br />
showing that <a href="https://youtu.be/MA48CUjiiJo" target="_blank">tutorial which you can see here.</a></div>

Whenever I start a lace book, I can't stop working on it until it is finished. By that, I mean that if it takes a week of being in the craft room for hours every day, that's what I do. And it is so much fun! And if something is scheduled for one of those days, like a doctor appointment, I get all fidgety until I can get back to it! Are y'all anything like that? Do you also sit and gaze at videos and photos of lace books and lace projects and just smile?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I must thank each of you who share your work with us! What lovely creations you have made! Books and wall hangings, projects dripping with pearls and lace, the most lovely ideas I have ever seen! You are each SO talented!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have learned so much from you all!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello to you all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you have been having a wonderful month!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been busy making pretties, and working on getting my house unpacked.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Moving is hard, and has taken me much longer than I ever thought it would to finish getting all of these boxes unloaded, and all the 'stuff' we 'had' to keep into new places.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Although it's been hard, it's been fun, and I love my new home. One day I will show you photos of what I've been up to, but it's not ready yet!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I'll show you what I've been making instead.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Do you remember a few posts ago, a lace book of Bible Verses I made for a friend who was having yet another round of chemo?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, she finally has finished! YEAH!!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And as a gift to her for her courage and a special reminder of God's Faithfulness, I made her this wall hanging.</div>

I truly wish I had different lighting in my craft space. Florescent lighting is really hard to work with.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But, the laces are pretty, and the whole piece worked out to be a lovely reminder that God is Faithful, and that He cares and loves us.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
It always seems that when I work with my laces, I'm thinking of people who lived long ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I touch the beautiful designs made by hands long ago, it connects me in the NOW, with people from the PAST. And it makes me think. What will people in the FUTURE think or know about me?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Am I leaving something behind for those who will come after me that will be of value?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know I am. Because I'm a living, breathing, human being of value to God, and so are YOU.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have a purpose here. We have a place, and we have HIM.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My value? Only God knows the real value, but I can name a few that I see.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To my husband, my children, my church family, and my friends.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You see, things would be a lot different if I wasn't here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And that's what I guess I'm getting at.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I almost wasn't.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

These vintage photos are just so sweet. Beautiful children who lived long ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Their pictures left behind for others to value.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But the people themselves, they had value, and they probably grew up to have their own children, and then THEY had children who may be those of you who are reading this today.</div>

The old things I collect and love to play with are truly just things. They have little value.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And as I grow older, I seem to be able to pass more of the items I've cherished on to others. Realizing that it's the OTHERS who have value!</div>

I'm so thankful for photos. They are the visual history of our world. Truly, a picture is worth a thousand words! And the photos I cherish of my loved ones from the past as well as my children from today make my life happier. Those have value. Because THEY had/have value.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And some day when photos are all that is left of me, I hope that the people seeing them will realize that life is precious. That life if of value. That THEY have value!</div>

Hello to you all! I hope this finds each of you doing well, and staying warm again!!<br />
Can you believe the weather this year??<br />
We've been trying to slowly get the yard looking nice...no easy task!!<br />
But the weather has been lovely...until NOW!! ARGH!!<br />
Anyway, on to the tutorial for the lace book.<br />
This tutorial is only going to be with pictures, because I have no clue how to make a You Tube video!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyone want to let me in on the secret, then I might be able to utilize that avenue!</div>

OK...the Lace Book that I made which I showed you completed on my previous <a href="http://faithgracecrafts.blogspot.com/2014/03/pearls-and-lace-book-for-pearls-and.html" target="_blank">post here</a>, was a lot of fun for me to make. It was my first try at a lace book, and I was quite pleased with the result!</div>

I began by going to Pinterest and starting a <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/faithgracecraft/fabric-and-lace-collage/" target="_blank">pinboard called Fabric and Lace Collage which you can look at here.</a> I pinned any picture that was related to making books, journals, collages, tags, etc. which utilized laces, fabrics, trims, etc. I wanted a place where I could go to for inspiration, ideas, and how to's. The number of people who make these lovely books and journals and wall hangings astounds me with their ideas, tutorials, and gorgeous images. I wish I could talk to each person and thank them for their time and their willingness to share their ideas!! If you are one of them, then THANK YOU!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To start, I found a You Tube video by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuPLkzAZFt8" target="_blank">Scrappin Happyxo</a> which you can view <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuPLkzAZFt8" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jeannette gave a list of other tutorials (located in her description box). Her use of cloth napkins and doilies for pages made the base for her book. She clearly explains how she makes her books and the ideas were terrific.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will show you pictures of my own lace book now, and how I continued on her ideas. Please note that I did not copy her ideas exactly, but I did use her basis for pages ideas. I did not use glue to attach any laces to my pages, but I did use it for the flowers on the front (above). Again, great tutorials out there on flower making! Please note: you do NOT need to use fabric napkins for your book, you could use any type of fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this book I used some old thin lovely lace edged napkins as the pages. Between the folds of the napkin I sandwiched two pieces of felt (see below) cut to just smaller than the lace edges, sewing with a machine around the edges to keep shut. I had to pin the felt and napkin "pages" together to keep the felt in place while I placed the rest of my laces etc. on the pages.<br />
Below is an example of the beginning of a lace book that I am working on now, as I did not think at the time to take pictures as I started the first book!<br />

Using napkins with matching designs made this project easy. First, I folded each napkin into a square so that the prettiest corner was located in the upper right hand corner, and I could open it from right to left like a page in a book.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once the "page" was open, I lowered the inside part of the folded napkin down, then cut pieces of felt for each side, left and right. The felt is pink in the examples below.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Note: If you want the felt to be seen through your design, leave it in place. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you do NOT want the felt to be seen behind your design, now is the time to trim the felt along the design edge allowing the design to be without felt behind it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For this example, I would trim the felt along the folded portion to remove it from the design area.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But I decided to leave the pink felt behind the flower motif to show through.</div>

Here is the example of the napkin with the felt pieces inside, ready to be sewn around the outside edges. In the picture above I would sew around the bottom left, across the top, then down the right side, making sure the felt stays where it belongs by pinning it in place before sewing. I found it fine to leave my pins in the felt while I worked on the rest of the book, but you can tack it down with thread if you prefer.</div>

All napkin pages are now stitched together and the felt inside still pinned.<br />

<br />
When the napkins are all stitched with the felt inside each "page", I then cut a piece of muslin in a length long enough to be folded like an accordion (folded back and forth, back and forth), with enough left over to go over the front and back of the book. This is a way to attach each napkin page to the next napkin, making the actual book form. This example was a piece of bleached muslin cut across the folded original piece of yardage. The width of the material from the bolt was kept in tact, and a piece approximately 5 inches was used. I eyeballed the cut, and made sure the piece was shorter than both upper and lower edges of the actual napkin pages so that when finished, it would not show (see above).<br />

I had 6 napkins to work with, therefore the center of my book was three pages in.</div>
<br />
I wanted the folds that would be attached to the inside of the napkin pages to be just large enough that I could easily stitch them to the insides of the pages, attaching them to both sides of the pages. One on the left page, one on the right page. These were used between two napkins, making them into the book form. After trying a number of times to calculate the actual size, I found it easier to eyeball it, thinking ahead about how thick I wanted the pages to be, allowing for things I would attach later. I left enough looseness between for what I thought I would need. <br />

I continued pinning folds to the napkins, making the backing of the book from the accordion folds. When the napkins were all attached (pinned), I made any changes that I thought were necessary for the thickness of the book.<br />

The extra material left over on the front and back of the book from the accordion folds I pinned in place. It makes a nice "work cover" for while I am handling it so much and saves the extra material to the outside of the book in case I want to use it there. I found out that once it is cut...there is no going back!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Then I got out my needle and thread and sewed the whole book together with stitches through the folds into the napkin 'page' and felt. The felt gave me a place to sew into similar to a quilt batting center. I did not want the stitches to show on the other side of the page where I was sewing, so the felt made an easy place to sew to. I used a double row of stitches on each fold, following the exterior of the folds, and leaving a slight bit of material between each fold for the width of each page. It made a very nice way to attach the napkin pages to each other. A final backing or binding of the book will come later.<br />
<br />
Now. Once the basic book was finished, the fun part of decorating and embellishing comes.<br />

A little bit of a story goes along with this book, and those of you who are always on the hunt for something for your lace book will enjoy this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I live in an area where antique stores run along the main streets of downtown. I have been in them many times, and on one my trips I saw a huge bolt of velvet. It was a creamy vanilla color, but had some age spots and a bit of water damage to it. So I passed it by.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And that night I couldn't sleep. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now I spend a lot of time on the internet and on you tube looking at lace book videos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
HOURS of videos. I especially love looking at Margaret Tomasso's creations and she has inspired me greatly. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/7mrst" target="_blank">Click here</a> to see her You Tube channel. There are so many talented ladies out there! I've learned so much from you all!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But then I saw a video Margaret did that had velvet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I passed up that roll of velvet at the store!!! OH NO!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fast forward to the next available day I could get to town!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was freezing cold, and it was just after the new year.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I walked in to the store, bee-lined it to the vendor's area, and it wasn't there!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Waaahhhhh!!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
OK, I thought. So it's not here. Maybe she took it home and I can find out from her if that's the case.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I mosey around snooping behind her boxes and displays, and then....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
THERE IT WAS!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hidden behind a display!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now this bolt of velvet was heavy, not a full bolt, but PLENTY of fabric to have on hand for a really long time. BUT....was it yellow, or was it cream???? If it was yellow, I would not be getting it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I looked for a price on it, and couldn't find one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Up to the front of the store I go, carrying the bolt of velvet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The lady at the front was soooooo nice!!! Of course she would let me carry it outside to see the color in natural light! She followed me out to see it herself. "What are you going to do with it?" she asks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"Make fabric and lace books and flowers with it" I answer!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's cream! NOT YELLOW!!! A beautiful, creamy vanilla oh so perfect with laces I couldn't be happier. But wait, there's more.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The price issue.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We can find no price. So she proceeds to call up the vendor, can't reach her. Tries another number, no answer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"What would you offer for it?" she asks me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I show her the damage, and then offer $10.00</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"That's fair" she says!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's mine, and now it's made into a beautiful lace book of bridal bouquets!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The roses on the front of the book are THAT velvet!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This was such a fun project! It took me quite some time to get it all put together, but the process was amazingly fun. Wedding dresses and appliques along with laces from long ago, vintage and antique, were used, along with many trims both vintage and new. I now have a huge collection of trims that I can utilize for my books.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And let's not forget the pearls and bling! I have put some lovelies in the book and it all seems to make it into something very beautiful.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm seriously considering selling it...what do you think??</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thank you so much for looking! I hope you enjoyed it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Blessings to you all,</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the finished Lace Book, (previous post shows the start),</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I completed it within One Week!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Can you believe it's finished so quickly?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I couldn't, so now I'm a fan of GLUE!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, hot glue. The new way I am going to use to make some of my lace books!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, don't get me wrong, I still stitch quite a few elements:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The base of the book, small embellishments, etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But for the most part, this one is put together using hot glue!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here it is:</div>

Sometimes you just have to make something. That drive hits you when you can't put it off, can't let it pass, and you just HAVE to get crafty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few weeks ago I decided that instead of trying to get the house work done, it was time to make something. So I started a Lace Book.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now don't complain about me not finishing one I've already started...this one is for a friend who is battling cancer. Please pray for her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I've only started it, just getting the front cover and the edges worked on.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I must say, I am having trouble figuring out the best order to make the pages!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You'd think after watching endless hours of lace book tutorials and shares that I'd be ready to make</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
one of these, but the process is sometimes difficult.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Especially when you are trying to get everything perfect!</div>

I've started by printing out the pictures on to plain muslin, using the freezer paper method which works well for me. Just have to remember to NOT get these wet or I might risk smearing the print.</div>

I am actually doing something I never thought I'd ever do...use a hot glue gun...to make this book with. Time is important, to us all, and I finally decided after seeing so many of y'all using glue to make your beautiful books that I could do so as well. I have to say, it's a LOT faster!!</div>

I printed out 4 large pictures and 9 smaller pics, and then sandwiched them with a layer of felt in between the muslin layers, then zigzag stitched around them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am gluing tiny lace trims around them, but I have to finish them before I get them into the book pages.</div>
