Multi-section Slipcase photos




Marie and I have issued a challenge to the TeaBAG book arts guild to make a multi-section slipcase with five pamphlet books.  The theme is Helen Reddy's song "I am Woman".  I've started a sample three section slipcase for the book in the previous post to work out the bugs and make all the mistakes on.  Here are a couple of photos of the sample in process.

Materials cut

Pieces with book used as pattern
I made bookcloth from a fabric remnant and created a paper pattern to test size for bookcloth strips
(this still ended up a tad short)
One of two jigs (can't figure out what Jig B looks like)
Marked center of bookcloth strip and board to place it in the center
Three bookcloth strips glued with boards and ends turned in and glued.
