Have wanted to do this circular book for a while. This being my first attempt, it isn't perfect - it's not entirely symmetrical when it's closed. But I know where I went wrong, so maybe if I do another, I will manage to get everything lined up perfectly. It looks fine when it's opened out fully! You do each segment separately, then stick it all together so when it opens out it makes a perfect circle.I chose the 'Circle of Life' theme as it combined my crafting with one of my other passions - Ancestry! I did each segment as a generation, starting with the children, then the young gentlemen looking forward to their travels and young lady who is in love for the first time and finishing with Grandma and Grandpa who have a treasure chest of memories of their lives together. I'm enough of a romantic to think that perfect families really DO exist (if only in my imagination!)
I have started a couple of projects this week, in anticipation of my bowling season finishing on Sunday!

Viv this is absolutely amazing! I dont know if I would have had the patience to do something so creative, it really is stunning.xxx
Viv, that is (to use one of my cousins words) AWESOME!!! -did wonder why you had blogged a quarter of a cheese when I first looked then scrolled down and wow - brilliant.
This is a beautiful book. Love the concept of a book that folds out to form those wonderful platforms -just ideal for altering!
That's really interesting, and looks like it took quite a bit of time and patience.

Never heard of a circular book before but this looks amazing and you can't see at all that it's not perfect. Do you have a template for it, would love to give it a try...
That's quite an undertaking. Very nice outcome, especially for a first attempt.
