As for this one, it's about 8 x 5.5 inches closed or 8 x 11 open to a full spread. <br /><br />I have to say I rather like working across the center seam more than I expected to. I am encouraged to do more full page/double page spreads with this type of journal. <br /><br />I will also say that there is something....freeing(?)....about committing to working in a bound book. It's like working in pen rather than pencil...there is no "erasing." Well, actually there is, it's just in the form of covering up with paint or paper. <br /><br />But if you elect to let the mistakes stand and just go with it, it is very freeing and it allows for way more creativity!Laure Ferlitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14966163843633158039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711781124266002702.post-72212174316475522862012-05-19T10:35:37.962-04:002012-05-19T10:35:37.962-04:00Yes, I think the class is going to be a lot of fun...Yes, I think the class is going to be a lot of fun!

I notice that you are using a bound journal this time and it seems bigger. How did you like that? I still am using one like I did in NOLA that I can move the pages around in. Not brave enough to try a bound book. Thanks for sharing your trip.
