A closer look
This is a handmade notebook featuring a cover crafted from dark blue handwoven cloth, likely cotton, with a distinct, slightly coarse woven texture. The front cover is adorned with a padded appliqué in the shape of a stylized whale or fish, made from a lighter blue fabric. This appliqué is secured with visible hand-stitching using white and dark blue thread, creating a textured, three-dimensional effect. The edges of the entire cloth cover are intentionally left raw and frayed, contributing to a rustic, artisanal aesthetic. A brown elastic band, attached to the back cover, wraps around the notebook and fastens with a fabric-covered button closure on the front, ensuring the notebook remains securely closed.
The notebook's interior contains a block of paper with a total of 96 sheets, equivalent to 192 pages. The paper is a combination of two types: kraft paper, identifiable by its light brown, natural tone, and Dowling paper, which appears as smooth, off-white sheets. The dimensions of each paper sheet are 8 centimeters in width by 9 centimeters in height. The pages are bound together with visible stitching along the spine, which is also covered by the handwoven cloth of the cover. When opened, the notebook lies relatively flat, revealing the alternating types of paper.
The overall construction is entirely handmade, with all stitching, appliqué, and binding done by hand. This is evident in the slightly irregular but deliberate stitches and the unique, non-uniform finish of the fabric edges. The notebook has a compact, portable size, easily held in one hand as shown in the images. The combination of the dark blue woven cover, the lighter blue appliqué, and the natural-toned interior pages creates a cohesive, earthy color palette. The materials used—handwoven cloth for the cover and a mix of kraft
