This is a good example of a hand made book that has had quite a few hours work put into it! From extracting the text, to typesetting, then painting the cover and assembling pages and binding. It does have a lovely solid, finished quality about it, but i feel that I should have made more than one.
I was talking to Alexandra Czinczel, a book artist, who creates wonderful pop-up books, usually in singles. She spoke about her keenness to make multiples when she starts out the making process, but by the end, although loving her work, she feels finished with that idea and ready to move on. Thus the multiples don't get made!

I agree totally, but still resolve to make more copies!
