About Kilpatrick Handmade Books

Kilpatrick Handmade Books

Hand cut and Hand stitched Sketchbooks with colourful fabric or paper covers - made in Cheshire

I got into making handmade books in 2018 after learning the stitching technique from my son. I needed a sketchbook for drawing / watercolour and he made me one. I use different types of sketching paper from watercolour to cartridge to recycled coffee cup paper and cover the books with different types of fabric and handmade papers I have picked up. I also make art pieces by hammering sheets of pure copper and have included some small copper emblems onto the fronts of some of my books. I work from home and have a staffie called Ralph who steals shoes.
