Going on a trip soon so I decided to make myself some sketch books. This one is made out of a REALLY gouty leather jacket that mom pulled out of the inner reaches of her closet:D Wish I would have taken a picture of the jacket to show you, but I forgot. As for the binding stitch, I kind of made it up as I was going along. But isn't is pretty? :3
