Nap Times

One of the best things about naps is you get two days in one!

I am so inspired by the Handmade Book Club videos that I utilize every minute of Time Real Estate to watch tutorials and then look in my stash of papers for the next book.  Sitting time is spent folding and cutting signatures--and that's what I did yesterday before and after Elena's rodeo.

Will was filming her excellent run, no barrels down, when suddenly she took that last turn and fell.  I've never seen her fall before, but her parents say she always gets right up.  Yesterday she didn't get up until Will rushed onto the arena and helped her up, then limped off with her daddy, her ego bruised more than anything.  They'd just gotten a new saddle for Yancey and it didn't fit properly--which is why, they think, she fell. 

Meanwhile, Marcus is sports announcing in Richmond and attending all the basketball games his girlfriend, Lucia from Spain, plays. 

I'm not a sports fan--unless some of my kids are playing--so Super Bowl Sunday is a day of rest and designing books.  The three I'm making later today will have leather covers, my first--one with a saddle stitch binding, one with a chain stitch, and one honeycomb.
