This hand-sewn journal can be used as a photo album, sketchbook or as a journal. The 112 pages inside are white Strathmore drawing paper and heavy enough to glue or attach photos or scrapbook collage. The outside covers have a striking black and white paper; the circles having some three dimensional texture. Since this paper is quite transparent, I layered an extra piece of white underneath. The inside covers have red paper and the book is sewn with red linen thread in the coptic stitch. The book opens completely flat for easier use. SIZE is 8.25” square.
