City and Guilds 119 Day 2

Not an enjoyable day. The temperature in the room was very high and it made for an uncomfortable learning experience. So I was irritable as me and another students suggestions to turn down the heat was ignored.

The type of photo album we learned was fiddly and I personally feel more preparation should have been available.


I cased in the photo album from yesterday.  Then we made a template  that we would need for the next photo album.  I was not impressed with the materials used for this. The tape placed over the rail guides ripped and peeled off half way through which meant the cloth was getting glued to the grey board. Maybe hard board or mill board would have worked better? I felt rushed getting this made, rushed to get the eight sections finished. I wasn't very happy to say the least.







Not much was accomplished today and I would have to place it as my least enjoyable day learning bookbinding to date.
