The bible is finished

Well the Bible is finished. Not perfect but much better than it was.
The crease down the spine came with the bits of the book. it is irritating but minor efforts to remove it did nothing. I was afraid to try major surgery for fear of splitting the spine.

And now it is on to the next bit of repair. I have three books to deal with, all of them I am pleased to say quite small jobs compared to the Bible. And I propose to start with the easiest of them where the spine has come off. The book itself is in excellent condition. So a couple of hours work. What I want to do is get all of these off and get onto some serious book binding of the sort where I design the book from scratch.

In the meantime, I have to warp up the Guild 12 shaft loom for the class to weave samples. I have designed some littles trees and a flower or two and they can choose what they want to do.
And now to wind a wap.
