PERSIAN LAMB SKETCHBOOK / JOURNAL

Almost everyone seems to have a connection to this wool – either an aunty or mom had a coat made from this fur back in the day.  These books are made from fur coats that I thrifted locally and carefully disassembled to be able to make the most of repurposing the fur.  These books are the epitome of soft and cuddly!

PAPER TRAITS:  Strathmore 400 series drawing paper (80 lb/118 gsm).  This paper works well with graphite pencil, coloured pencil, pen and ink, marker, soft pastel, mixed media and oil pastel; perfect for all your writing and art ideas.  

Each group of pages is wrapped in a cover of Strathmore 400 series cold press watercolour paper (140 lb/300 gsm).

Hand sewn with Irish linen thread using the old German Langstitch und Kettenstitch (long stitch and link stitch) method of bookbinding; a structure that allows for each of the pages to lay flat, allowing every page to be used to its fullest.
