Description

For a number of years I’ve been searching for the best way to use tweed in my bindings, and thanks to some inspiration provided by Karen Hanmer (who was in turn inspired by Jen Lindsay) I think I might be there.

These are sturdy, long lasting bindings which open beautifully. Each one is entirely unique, with different tweeds from Harris and Iona, different covers, and different endpapers. Four are roughly A5 in size, while one is closer to A6.

They are all stuffed full of Flat white paper. I love using this paper because it’s 50% recycled paper and 50% recycled coffee cups. It’s also got a nice weight to it, a subtle texture, and it can even take a light wash.

The five in this listing are:

• Blue Harris tweed spine with wave pattern cloth covers and green Ola Paper endsheets — and a Nessie cameo on the back
• Rose Harris tweed spine with green and pink thistle pattern covers and classic starburst endsheets
• Check pattern Harris tweed spine with bright blue cloth covers and yellow patterned endsheets
• Blue Iona tweed spine with dark blue buckram covers and thistle and clover Angie Lewin endsheets
• Check pattern Harris tweed spine with teal covers and green Ola Paper endsheets
