Eyecandy and a Rant

I finally finished cutting all of the fabric I bought for the books. 
16 pages of "cheetah fur" and all of the scraps

So I decided I would work on the fiber content tags. I had enough fabric for 3 sheets, or 30 of each tag. Sadly, the printer jammed the first two times. The third time I taped not only the leading edge but all of the edges. Success!

The writing got all messed up on the first two but the last one is beautiful!

I figured 10 tags was enough for now so I wasn't too upset about the other 20 that didn't work out.

The ink has to sit overnight before I rinse and cut the tags, so I decided to start putting the books together and sewing. So I took one of each page...

Hmm... need more pastels, methinks.
...and realized I didn't have enough pages! So, not only do I have to buy and cut more fabric, but the tags I just made are useless because when I add more pages the fabric content ratios are going to change.

These are totally going to change, which is lame.
End.
