Letterpressing induction

In today's induction we learned how to letterpress. We had to select a quote which is not to long to print the lettering on our piece of paper. The quote I choose to do was the one by Audrey Hepburn "Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible". During the process of putting the individual letters on the plate was quite difficult as the way they were layout in the box was the letterpressing alphabet. And when I started to put ink on to my letterpress and printed some letters where the wrong way round i.e p, b and looked like a d or q. 

Overall, it was quite successful. If I practice more of this in my spare time, I can use it for other project or briefs.
