[More] Adventures in Bookbinding


I'm sitting here with all the windows open in the studio, basking in the beautiful sunshine and warm air. The birds are singing, and I can smell the lilacs blooming in the backyard.

This spring has been incredible! Not only am I thoroughly enjoying spending time outside (guys, I have a backyard that I can hammock in anytime I want!!), but I started out the season with a really great request for some hand-bound journals.

The request was for 5 journals, 4 identical 8.5"x5.5" and 1 with different cover material. My client wanted flexible covers and open coptic stitching for the spine.

Oh, and she also asked me to inscribe the first page with each recipient's name in calligraphy. What a perfect combination of creativity, to make for weeks of fun!

I had a blast creating these, and will be making some for the shop soon! If you're interested in personalizing notebooks or journals, give me a shout and let's create something uniquely amazing for you and your loved ones!
