Since we weren't able to attend in-person shows over the past year, we participated in as many virtual events as our schedule would allow. As we brainstormed new workshop ideas for each event, Tricia developed a variety of projects that can be made from a single Page Kit.
Page Kit Projects
French Link Stitch Book
The one that started it all! I had the honor of teaching this class at a Retreat in Wisconsin in 2018. The cutting formulas and instructions transform twelve sheets of 12x12 paper into a gorgeous hand-stitched book.
As luck would have it, all of our monthly Page Kits include twelve sheets of paper, along with printed cutaparts and other embellishments to finish your book beautifully. Visit this blog post for further details.
Looking for additional inspiration? See the wedding journal I made for Beth's daughter, and my personal blog for two more completed French Link Stitch Journals.
Classic Stitch Bound Book
A cousin to the French Link Stitch Book, the spine on this handmade book features a basic long stitch (making it a bit easier than the French Link). Sized at 5x7" with covers made of sturdy book board, both the Classic and the French Link use the same basic components - only the stitching pattern is different. Wrap the covers in book cloth or two additional sheets of your favorite printed or plain paper. The instructions download includes a full-length video tutorial. Read more about the project on Tricia's blog post, or take a visual tour of Julie's beautiful Butterflies version!
Accordion Hinge Book
Also sized at 5x7", the Accordion Hinge Book requires no stitching. The unique spine structure is functional as well as decorative - you'll be amazed how it all comes together! The book is perfect for a special occasion, trip, or for gift-giving. Read Tricia's article for more info. Click on the links below to be inspired by additional completed samples.
