Indirect Tacketing Journal with Leather Cover

Indirect Tacketing Journal with Leather Cover - student project

This was another really fun and interesting class - thank you Hilke!  Indirect Tacketing Journal with Leather Cover - image 1 - student project

The first project made a tiny wee notebook that is just too cute!

I made my big project with scrap paper from other projects, and then used some leather scrap for the cover.  

I ended up adding some cardstock glue-in endpages after I was finished, because the leather was really too soft, but this also added a nice contrast color to match the color of the tacket threads.

I'm thinking about making another with longer leather covers that can wrap all the way around and have a snap or a buckle for a travel journal.  

Thanks for another great class Hilke!
