About this item

Description

This is a handstitched book which I have bound using Coptic stitch and red lined thread. This style of binding allows the pages to open completely flat. I have used bookcloth for the covers, and have included a raised embossed heart design on the front cover. The inside pages are 140gsm cartridge paper. This book is A6 landscape (height 10.5cm by 15.5cm)

I love paper and I love making things, so making handmade books is the natural progression. I enjoy trying out different book structures and Coptic is one of my favourites to make. Recently I developed a technique for making these raised embossed shapes and letters under the bookcloth, and these give the books a unique and personal touch.
