Book Origami
Here is the piece from the last post, but finished! The crochet is mounted to the book, which I love. I decided to do an altered book backing after seeing this photo on Flickr - I was so inspired by it! When I started fiddling around with some old books (from a box headed for donation - no treasured books were harmed in this experiment!) I realized that the possibilities are endless. I now have four or five "origami books" waiting to be put to use.
And here is a doodle I made the other day, just for fun!

zajpcrThe origami book looks so effective! It makes a great contrasting background for the delicate crochet.
That book looks like it's been sitting in the back of the fridge too long... or at the bottom of the ocean!
