The Making

Have you ever felt sad when a song ends? After listening to a traditional fiddling tune, I wanted to make something that held that feeling forever.

Creating this original artwork was the most fun I’ve had with a sketchbook in a while. After I was happy with the fiddle and floral design, I hand-tooled the art into the perfect piece of leather.

My leather pieces are meant to last for life, so I designed a notebook that could be refilled and reused. the inserts are handmade from 20lb cream paper, and they’re easy to replace when the time comes.

Once the piece was dyed and antiqued, I saddle-stitched the notebook by hand.
