The ultimate recycled piece! This full size (8.75" x 6.5" x 1.25") journal has pieces of white, black, blue, grey & brown leather with yellow, purple, teal, blue green & black thread. One piece of white leather wraps around the front & is secured with a single vintage large black button. On the inside panels there is matching colorful fabric depicting a deep red floral pattern with dark greens. The paper was pulled from a toned tan Strathmore sketch book, cut to size, printed with lines and cut again for smooth edges. Finally, each signature was hand stitched into a text block using bookbinding techniques. 13 signatures-approx 144 pages +- . **Each piece from InWord OutBound is unique-therefore special & perfectly imperfect. The materials are gathered from reloved sources. As an example, reloved leather/fabric may show some signs of its past, printed page lines may have ink additions or stitching may be visibly noticeable.
