Friends from @handpapermaking offered a presentation to Puget Sound Book Artists this past weekend. It was a whirlwind visit but keepsakes were printed. “Paper” is set in Stipple, which seemed like the perfect type. #typecrushtuesday #letterpress #papermaking #thornileycollection #elliottpress (at Pacific Lutheran University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9AvpJAhK-9/?igshid=p2xk03rdhtha
German class visiting today to the @plu_soac Elliott Press, setting a Martin Luther quote with some tired Spectrum (but it has omlauts) with 4-line wood type. Roughly translated, what the heart is full of the mouth will overflow.) #thornileycollection #reformation (at Pacific Lutheran University)
January term is a wrap! Detailed book photos to come, but these amazing word heroes completed 25 copies of “Word Loch with their own kennings and Wendy Call’s essay. AND Isaiah designed an exploding Valentine of boxes within boxes. #bookarts #elliottpress #thornileycollection #kennings #letterpress (at Pacific Lutheran University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8AxK1PBrPD/?igshid=luumsl2awbcg
This January term has been intense, sometimes chaotic, but this crew of printers fill me with heart burst (gratitude). We are working on a book of kennings—two nouns that create a metaphor for another noun. Professor Wendy Call wrote an essay students are typesetting, and they each created their own kenning. We have 5 days to finish, print gods willing. Much gratitude to @write.253 where I learned about this fascinating rabbit hole. #letterpress #wordnerds #thornileycollection #elliottpress (at Pacific Lutheran University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7r19pLB2G1/?igshid=17qou8me7tlu7
Our first assignment is usually a six word memoir, but January term is short: ain’t got time for that. These are Nerbs (a noun and a verb) and the first print for most of these students on our platen presses. #letterpress #metaltype #woodtype #thornileycollection #pochoir (at Pacific Lutheran University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Zm1exhWSO/?igshid=1p4ln9pg62wr4
A few charming examples of daredevil ingenuity in the #thornileycollection are best viewed from several angles to appreciate the efforts. A star-studded skier is held in place with plaster-of-paris inside a piece of furniture. Prices are set in brass tubes cut to type high which print surrounding circles.

Teamwork in action while diecutting coasters for @wcp_solutions. Nearly 1000 done today and our C&P was a chomp (and a champ). #diecutting #letterpress #elliottpress #thornileycollection (at Pacific Lutheran University) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxd6kwghRSw/?igshid=2d5piza83lv
