[Hartwood] Book count: numbers!

[jamesllewellyn at shaw.ca]

The regular ones we are doing are a factor of 24.

4 quires of 6 leaves  or 6 quires of 4 leaves.

A leaf makes up 2 pages double-sided in a book or 4 pages if we numbered 
them.

So these make books with 48 double sided pages or 96 pages for actual 
writing on.



Halima is much faster than me sewing as I can usually sew 2 in an hour.

Of course, now I am switching to try and do the oriental ones so that may 
take longer initially..

LOL, I was worried when you wrote how long it took you in an earlier post,
but now it's clear why!  Wow, thank you so much for all of the hard work put
into your books.  So, these are double the size of the regular ones...  And
about how thick?  I'm guessing that each one would count as around 4 of the
regular sized ones, space-wise, in the tourney chest?  That will really
help.
