ROD Journal Cover Returns Home

ROD???  The talented Susie LaFond hosted a round robin for fellow classmates from Mary Ann Moss' Remains Of the Day class. Each participant constructed a fabric base and then mailed it to the next "player" to add onto it. I began mine with a striped fabric for the base and cut some slits on the end where the flap would fold over to the front. Next, I cut some strips from the leftover base fabric and wove them through the slits to provide some texture. I secured the strips in place by stitching "X"s onto a few of the squares formed from the weaving. It was then mailed to the next "player" for additional enhancement. After 6 months of traveling, my cover finally returned home looking quite lively, don't you think?
