when i made a fabric book about grateful dead last year, i decided to make a songbook of their music, too and ordered 2 faux licence plates of the band (see below). they should become the covers of the songbook. recently i found them again under a huge stash of other stuff and decided it´s really time to start now!!
the holes at the side will be perfect for binding (and i have some steal-your-face shoelaces therefore! deadheads know what i´m talking about and all others will see. soon, hopefully;)

i tinted some sheets of cardstock with dye ink and printed songs of the dead on them. today i began to embellish the first one – the song “china girl”. will upload it instantly…
