thursday things

 boards for my little edition 
cut for me by bob
 my exemplar,
a tiny book, actually
 the laundry actually froze on the line
but i persevered! 
 one of hundreds of papers
 the boards after sanding 
and a little thingie from roz
for the closure
 three from this series
and this little mark 
makes me happy.
