Patra's Other Place

I started out with Patra's Place, primarily dedicated to my linen collection and stitching projects. But I kept getting side-tracked, so I decided to create Patra's Other Place for anything not related to embroidery topics. So you now have a choice. If you are interested in me, read this. If you only want to see my linen and stitching, visit Patra's (original) Place! (Please note that by clicking on any of the photos, they will be enlarged to fill your computer screen.)

I was married to Ken for 43 years, but he died in October 2022. So I am now alone with two cats, eight hens, and a few finches and parrots in one aviary.

Val gives me a lesson in book binding.

Most of us are passionate about something in our lives - maybe families, hobbies, jobs, etc. Val's passion is making books - small notebooks using handmade or other pretty paper. We attended a class together a couple of months ago, and came away from there with enough stuff to make another book. I never got around to doing it on my own, so Val offered to show me another way of book binding. Here is the result. Difficult to see the details, but I'm very happy with my little book, and plan to use it for writing calligraphic letters and symbols.
