Chapter 11 Presentation Sheets

Decided to present the design, components and construction of the music bag on presentation sheets made from three handmade papers joined together as a zigzag booklet or music score that could rest on a music stand or was free standing.  It is 36 cm by 24 cm and fits in the bag.
Made three frames using garden wire, wrapping threads horizontally and vertically as in Chapter 7.  This shows the first one.

Made fresh paper pulp using old music scores and a cat litter tray for the larger frames
Had to add spoonfuls of pulp to reinforce the paper, as there were too many holes in the originals, then left to dry.
Selected 6 pages of information making up
ONE title page showing the completed music bag

ONE design page

TWO component pages


 and
TWO construction pages



finishing back at the beginning.
Retained the metal frames so the pages could be free standing and helpful for attaching tied threads, four on each length
Selected photographs, samples and items were attached to the paper using Prittstick.
The next picture shows the presentation sheets free standing

The last picture shows the presentation sheet slipped into the music bag.
