Chris, I have ordered pre-cut coasters from Holyoke Fine Papers (out of western MA): http://www.holyokedirect.com I print on their 140# all the time and love it; of course I haven’t gotten around to the coasters yet…

@chuckwendel Chuck Wendel has forgotten more about Letterpress than I’ll ever know!
He is also “an authority” on gas and steam engines—-he has written many
books on the subject; he is also “the head honcho” at Printers’ Hall at
Midwest Old Threshers in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. -

We could leave the covers up to us, so that each of us could make whatever we want for the cover. This way, too, we could bind or not bind our calendars because each of us is finishing ours. We would, of course, put some sort of statement saying that this was all a result of Ladies of Letterpress. Am I making sense? What do you all think?

I agree more than one set would be nice! It would make a great gift.I think at least 3 sets, anyone else have any thoughts?

Let’s do enough for 3 sets each.

Stephanie Colestock replied to the topic Another letterpress swap anyone?? in the forum Show Time 13 years, 9 months ago
I say we do at LEAST enough for 2 sets each. I like to keep one copy of each cool project around the studio for friends and clients alike to appreciate. I also would love to gift one (or more) to friends for Christmas. Since it’s just coasters, and they’re cheap, what if we do enough for everyone to get a few extra sets? Shipping would be maybe $2…[Read more]

Yes — good catch Bascule, we can not leave out October! A little note, everyone chime in with your thoughts — Does everyone on want one calendar each in the end or 2 or ?? We need to decide so we know how many to print each! Deadline update: Lets aim for having them shipped to me by November 30th (though if you are done early you can just ship o…[Read more]

Angela R. Stewart replied to the topic Another letterpress swap anyone?? in the forum Show Time 13 years, 9 months ago
Its a calendar so its time sensitive! I was thinking that they would ship out to everyone early December. If we have enough participants (that can make the deadline) we all do 1 month each and ship them to me I will then combine them in to full calenders once I have everyone’s and then ship them back out. (unless someone else has a better way to…[Read more]
