What a dear little book you have made Julia. I loved seeing it as a whole. I loved seeing how you chose to compose your spreads, including their sequence, making your result so cohesive. Your palette is so joyful and the video really showed the silver leaf to advantage. Rereading your notes on the sketchbook weekend page helped me to understand how working on most of your pages at the same time, and your limited palette, helped you to accomplish so much. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous work. Really a joy!

P.S. If what you're hinting at that's "possibly even more exciting" than a shed is what I think it it, we've just ordered the same thing LOL. And it is terribly exciting! I look forward to seeing your next post,
