Book about the making of Hamish's 100th kilt

[Barb T]

Hi all,

In one of the other posts in this section, I mentioned that my daughter and I were putting together a book using the photos that my husband took to chronicle the making of Hamish's 100th kilt. The book is done, and Hamish has his copy, so I thought I'd post a little bit more about the book for all y'all.

iPhoto is a terrific and easy-to-use program for a Mac that lets you assemble a book of photos using a template. It lets you pick the arrangement of images on a page, sizes, etc., and, when you're done arranging the book, you click "buy book", and, about 10 days later, a book arrives in your mailbox complete with a hard cover and a printed dust jacket. Quite fab!

Anyway, here's the cover of the book plus a few of the pages (not the whole thing). I'll split the images over two posts. Carolyn did a fabulous job on the design!
