Season Tree Journal
This journal is a commission that gave us a lot of creative freedom, and throughout the whole process of paper hunting across Barcelona’s paper bins, envisioning the design, stitching it onto fabric, and turning it all into a pretty little book it remains a clear example of the reasons why we decided to get into bookbinding.
i. stitching the cover ii. the book block is ready iii. preparing the book’s casing iv. we added a button
Pages are two colored (two shades of brown) paper from a recycling bin, held together with linen thread; fabrics are offcuts from different sources, stitched with cotton embroidery floss; endpapers are reused envelopes; bookmark and closing tape are silk ribbon and the vintage wood button comes from Z’s grandma’s button box.
I love this – the stitched fabric cover is such a beautifully tactile finishing touch to a beautiful book! =D
Thank you! I think it makes it feel warm :)
Es preciosa! L’altre dia em mirava un tapis al museu d’arts decoratives de Dublin i pensava… que bonic es un brodat a ma! Felicitats per aquesta llibreta tan maca i que, com dieu, es un bon exemple de per que feu el que feu.
Doncs jo crec que aprecio més les coses un cop m’endinso en el món de fer-les que només de mirar-les :) Però els tapissos són de fet també un dels meus interessos (i què no!).
I que no… doncs a fer tapissos! O no, millor concentrem-nos una mica…
Fantastic! It is sooooo beautiful! I love this! Weiter so!
