Brand New Coptic Stitch Journal with Hand Made Paper



My hardbound journal has hand made paper covering the front and back covers for an elegant recycled feel.



The vintage chocolate button and soft tan color of handmade paper make this journal a gift for the new year.



A vintage stamp is hand stamped asymmetrically on the left.




Mottled taupe hand made paper covers each signature and and there is a slight difference between signatures combining for a pattern.


My friend, Erin Keane, at Artistry Studio, has helped me learn the coptic stitch and here is the result of that learning!
