I started a new artist book last week....do you remember? I said it wouldn't be ready soon......it won't. I will put pages together whenever I have a half hour or so in which I feel inspired. That happened this morning when I glanced at the fabric I bought last week from the Festival of Quilts. Three fabric swatches and a row of French knots equal a simple, quick page exercise.
