This is the cover of my self-published "portfolio", a compilation of some of my fiber art pieces. I happened by an art supply store that was having some items on clearance. I found this jewel of a program on the table. It is called "Storyteller" by Epson. It retailed for over $30.00, but I paid significantly less for it.
The back cover includes even more photos of my work.
So, the program creates great images of the photos of your work to include in the book.
I don't know where to get it anymore. If you areinterested, try googling Epson.
Yesterday's post that I never uploaded:
No new art today, although I may do some pencil sketching after this post. I spent the day watering my front yard and my Earth Boxes, my attempt at growing vegetables on my deck in these special boxes. Then I sat in the sun and read a part of Mark McEwen's book, "Change in the Weather, Life After Stroke". It is interesting how lives cross paths. Me, a former television producer crossed paths with Mark, a former television personality, both felled by a stroke at a fairly young age. I'm not far enough into the book to make any judgements, but it sure brings back memories of the early days of my stroke. I don't remember much from the first days, but I am so grateful for the friends I nicknamed "the peanut gallery" who came to visit me in rehab and kept my spirits up. I know, without a doubt, that I would not have progressed as far without their support. Thanks again, my faithful friends.
I visited a fellow artist on an Open Studios weekend. Gen Zorich included a fabulous jewelry designer and a watercolor artist at her open studio so visitors got a "three for one" visit. It was a great idea and well-recieved by visitors .
Sunday, I visited and worked at the Santa Rosa Quilt Show. My art pieces were well-received. This show was excellent! There were over 400 pieces on display and many vendors to tempt our checkbooks and credit cards. I was good and only purchased two pieces, an oriental panel and a fun black and white piece from Aiko's Asian Fabrics, www.aikosasianfabric.com, a delightful booth of wonderful pieces

Thanks for sharing about the Epson Program...I have at least 2 of these that I've never opened...they came with purchase with the printers. I'll have to fiddle with them to see what I can do.
Thanks for posting about this software. The pictures of your front and back covers are very attractive.
FABULOUS BOOK! I'm just trying earh boxes [homemade] for the first time. My plants are tiny, so I'm not sure if we have enough good weather coming up to Maine.
This looks fabulous, I have been going to do this myself for a long time but haven't done so yet. There's a company called Blurb where you can down load their program free. They have lots of different templates to create your own book. You them pay for them to print your copies at a reasonable price.
