I love making felt using the traditional wet-felting technique, and adding other fibres and fabrics in the process to create a unique piece of fabric each time. Each piece takes about an hour (and lots of elbow-grease!) to felt. Once dry, it is trimmed, stitched, and decorated before being made up into the cover. Each one is different, never to be repeated, a piece of 'usable art'. A single cover can take the best part of a day to complete, but it's a very satisfying process and a very tactile end-product.

Full description
This beautiful keepsake book cover has been meticulously crafted and sewn, using a base fabric of handmade merino wool felt. The finished piece was then stitched and embellished with embroidery, sequins and beads.
The cover is softly padded, lined with toning hand-dyed cotton fabric and oversewn several times around the edges. A length of purple grosgrain ribbon has been stitched along the spine and a narrow satin ribbon forms an attached bookmark.
The cover comes complete with a standard A5 sized sketchbook from Seawhite of Brighton. Their books are made in Britain using British paper and are renowned for their excellent quality. The book can easily be replaced with a new one when needed, or perhaps with a diary or address book. A diary is available if preferred.
It would make a perfect gift for any occasion. This original cover is a one-of-a-kind piece, totally unique.
The cover measures approx 6.5 x 9 inches (16.5 x 23 cm) closed.
