Pretty, high-keyed arty journals that would make sweet bridesmaids’ gifts are now available on my Etsy shop.

3 handstitched seagull journals

I handstitched this trio using Irish linen thread and a big needle. I had made holes using my wooden-handled bradawl and feel a great sense of satisfaction producing these potent little booklets from scratch.

As well as bridesmaids’ gifts they would be lovely for anyone loving putting pen or pencil to paper:- poets, list-makers, cooks, wine-lovers, geniuses, forgetful ones and more.
