For my best friend...

 I made this leather book for my best friend who is a lover of blank books... she writes, sketches and paint wonderfully.  Deep inside she is an Artist who is waiting to retire to unleash the multiples talents she has been gifted with!

She was overjoyed when I gave her this book... just because....! Seeing her joy and bright eyes is the best reward she could give me!  In my dedication I wrote that the best way for to thank me is to use it ... because each time she will use it she will think of me.

Here's a little technicalities.  The leather cover is lined with another layer of leather.  The imprint on top was done with an " wood appliqué" under press.  The stich used is the long stich which allows to weave on  the exterior. For weaving and stiching I used Bamboo cord made of natural fibers.  Paper used is watercolor paper.
