The Perfect Gift

I'm quite pleased with the result of this little book.  The headbands are hand sewn and the overall construction turned out solid. The bookcloth is Japanese silk with natural fiber paper that provides a tactile diversity when this book is held.

This is the perfect gift for my favourite artist, my Mum.

Book dimensions are: 5 x 5.5 inch book  (12.7 cm x 13.97 cm)
Paper: high quality Somerset with deckle edges (200 page book)
