  • I used to be a librarian and I can tell you, at libraries we get donations of books all the time (many, many old ones). We are only too happy to give them away, for free, no cost, just take them. So my advice to you ladies, go to your local library for your books, they will happily let you take them off their hands. Thanks for the video ♥

Our library has a sale just once a year, you have to stand in line for quite a while to get in. I'll have to give this idea to the library and see what happens, Thanks

  • Just a tip to save time down the road. At 6:25 when the text block is out, I'd take some measurements of it before you set it aside (height, depth of the text block at the binding, and width across the top of the book from the sewn edge to the outside edge). The depth measurement at the binding should save time at the step at 27:30 and the height and width will help in Part 3 with trimming the pages.

My suggestion is to imagine the path as some extremely uneven sort of "harry potter" level of safety on some stairs at the first time you've visited a friend's house. Take each step as they come, focus on concentrating with each uneven step :) I'm sorry your knee didn't like the hill
