Pania Press (Blog)

It was a joint outing for Paper Table and Pania Press to the Indie Book Fair at Te Uru Gallery in Titirangi. We shared the space with a lovely array of small presses and spent a lovely day chatting to people and selling our books. I completed the textile covers and book bags for the last ten copies of the edition of Frances Kelly's short story 'First Fall' which was published by Pania Press in 2014. I loved the way our two imprints sat so well together. The three Paper Table novellas, with their appliquéd book bags, paired beautifully with the tactile hand stitched copies of 'First Fall' and the antique sewing box display certainly drew people towards our table. It was a really enjoyable occasion.
