Jottings, Doodles, Lists and Memoirs


I couldn't wait to tell you all that these rather fabulous handmade notebooks are now available to buy in my little Folksy shop. They've been made especially by The Bookbinder's Cat (aka my father and master bookbinder!) using vintage fabrics that I've sourced.

Each unique notebook started life as a stack of plain paper, which has been cut and folded to create the book's page sections before being sewn together by hand. A vintage fabric cover, leather spine, end papers and headbands completes each one. They've take many hours to create, but will last for years and years to come!

Pop over to Folksy to take a closer look...
