Return to Notebooks...

This book is another guided journal. I designed each page. Each week contains the same information, but all the days ask slightly different questions. This journal carries an emphasis on reflection and deep thinking. The journal begins with a long-term goal, then leaves room for smaller, weekly goals and weekly reflection.

There are 24 weeks in total, giving this book 240 pages. It’s a standard 5.5 by 8.5-inch book, bound using the case binding method. This means that each of the twelve signatures were French link stitched, then the spine was reinforced with glue and book cloth, then the text block was glued into the cover using the end pages.

The cover material is a soft, deep green plush velvet, and the end pages are plain black. I stitched the text block with my usual white waxed thread, and used a plain fabric for the headband to match the minimalist appearance.

This book was happily picked up at the Fraser Valley Women’s Expo by its new owner.
