Dear Ladies,

Pam had the lovely idea of making a home book to fill with all the necessary recipes a household needs. Things included in a home book may be cooking recipes, household hints, remedies, cleaning recipes and other useful information for running a household. Jane and I thought to make this a nice progressive swap where we would exchange signatures periodically until we have several and can put them all together in a cover. By making one signature at a time, we thought it could be tucked into your journal for safe keeping and when we have,several signatures we could then bind them. This swap is open to all members, whether you have a character or not and you are welcome to make your signatures into something other than a home book, it is your choice. By swapping signatures we will have a diverse book with inspiration from several others.

So, for this swap, please make one signature which consists of three sheets of paper folded in half and sewn at the crease. The size of the paper will be 10” length by 6” height which will give a nice sized little “booklet” when folded and get around the issue of the different sized papers from country to country. Embellish the pages as you would for a junk journal, perhaps using tea or coffee stained paper and adding little pockets, tags or belly bands for tucking things behind. Try to make your signature in keeping with our time period, utilizing colours and patterns of the time.

We will have one partner for this swap to whom we will send our completed signature and a short note, in character if you are so inclined, adding the name of the swap and your swap name as well. As always please send something that you would be happy to receive.

Please don’t hesitate to contact Jane or myself if you have any questions.
