2025 Foraged Fiber Paper Swap

A Special Interest Swatch Swap
This project is now closed.  33 papermakers have submitted their work.





Every participant made a copy of this book from a set of swatches 
consisting of one swatch from each participant, 
and a book file sent to them, designed and produced by Whiteleaf Paper.


I personally made 2 books from the extra sets of swatches
 out of my own handmade paper of foraged fibers.

One book is a hand bound codex made from the file that all participants received. 
The second book is an accordion book printed with a condensed and edited version of the text of the project book. 
This book was conceived as a way to exhibit the foundational work of the project, 
which was paper swatches and the information submitted to describe them.
Both books were sold, as a set, to a collector of rare books on the subject of paper.
