Page 4: Safari Adventure

This page was very interesting to construct. Thank goodness there's such a thing as double sided fusible interfacing!

The puzzle at the center of the page, when woven properly, shows an elephant walking in one direction and when woven in the opposite manner, the elephant appears to walk the other way. The wooden bead animals travel along the ribbons at the top and bottom of the page.

It would be great to use a firm plastic (reclaimed perhaps from used binders) insert behind the pages so that Andy will have an easier time manipulating the page activities. I'll have to see what I can do to round up some used binders that use just plastic for the front and back covers - ten binders should do the trick as I'm making a total of twenty pages.
