For five days I
have been in Leksand on a bookbinding course namned Sample Books. I had
attended a class with Cristina a couple of years ago and know she was a very
good teacher. I didn´t really know what sample books should be but we where
told to bring different samples of collections, buttons etc. During the class
we used those things in different books structures that we made during the
week. This class really was high above my expectations. We have done 8
different structures during the course and filled them with our own personal
contents. It has been so inspiring to meet the other participants and see what
they did. I have had a very nice week.
This is the 8 different books
that I did during the course. They are filled with different things: nibs for
calligraphy, watercolours, paper samples, drawing in black and white, memories
from Venice and buttons from my mother´s old button box.

are looking at the different things made during the course (thanks to Lena
