This lovely item is made entirely from old Primark bags (apart from the thread & glue of course). It has 8 signatures of 16 pages, that makes 128 (including front and back cover). Each one is sewn together & then sewn (and glued because I got a bit lazy with the sewing) to the others. I used the handles off the bags to wrap around the spine to create a stronger bind & a semi-hardback effect. This took ages, probably about 4/5 hours total but I'm pretty happy with it. Brown paper is good.

June 5th 2010: Dog In A Bag
Even though the mad craze of it has died down there are STILL some people out there carrying tiny dogs around in bags. It's silly.

June 4th 2010: Checkmate
I have come into an abundance of brown paper. Yes.
This is like... the Queen is chasing the King and she won't leave him alone and she doesn't understand it and it's all very aggrovating but he doesn't want to talk about it. Or it's a silly drawing. You decide.
