A notebook - I have so many! So many on the go at any given time that it's embarrassing. Yesterday I started reading some textile theory that I wanted to take notes about, and wondered if I needed to start another notebook for that! Fortunately, I realized that it fits with my other fibre work and I already have a notebook for that on the go.
I have recently started making notebooks because I'm learning bookbinding. As soon as I have finished one, I want to start writing in it right away - it's interesting how much making my own books is compelling me to write and collage all of a sudden. We will see where that goes.
I love you!!
