hey margaret,
i got your book today from georgina but apart from the "aprons"-page there are no other finished spreads - neither this one here nor the "ocean" one ??? plus i don't see what georgina has done

My two pages (backbone and ocean) stayed behind with me (they were being weighted under heavy unreadable tomes and I forgot to re-insert them!). Georgina, as far as I know, did the aprons page. She should also have customised one of the ladies on the sign-in page?
You just go ahead - pick a page or two and do what you like. And also choose one of the personas on the front sign in section and alter at will!

Wow. I love this piece and that quote. This is beautiful.
Once I get some free time. (After Sep 19th) I'll be signing up to receive things from DoD and hopefully... I'll be able to see this one in person.

I'm taking it to London with me tonight to mail to Georgina in Brighton - I think she should post it to you when she's finished ... then we get the Old World done efficiently before sending onwards to the New World!
