\"2016-09-14-bms-project-g\"<\/a>I’m finally getting serious about working on the project our local guild is doing.<\/p>\n

I’ve decided to do the same layout for all 26 sheets, which are 6″ x 9″. I’ll have an illuminated modern versal in\/on a 1-1\/4″ square, a word below that in an idiosyncratic hand, and then a quote.
