American Indians, Nature, Astrology, Garden Pests and The English Countryside...

We had a super meeting in November sharing ideas for our next theme, The Written Word. Some of us had too many ideas and some of us found it hard to pick one and stick to it. However, as always the point of belonging to a group is to share thoughts and gain inspirations and views from fellow members. We talked about a wide range of themes from - messages, poetry, Beatrice Potter's nature, graffiti fonts, historic novels plus various other topics. Hopefully by the time we meet in the new year we'll have cemented some ideas to share with you.

We also continued to share and work on our Altered Books project, these books are getting more interesting and growing fatter with each alteration. You can see from the title of this post just a few of the subjects we have to tackle.

Here are our snaps to share with you...

As you can see we're getting carried away and completing more than one page each month.

Until next time, Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all the Maids. Thanks for joining us throughout the year.
