A sketchbook featuring a range of fun and colorful papers makes the perfect background for on-the-go sketching, journaling or list making. Learn how to create a mixed-paper sketchbook by gathering together interesting papers and sewing them together with an easy pamphlet stitch. Pam Garrison also shows a few of her own mixed-paper sketchbooks, featuring solid-colored papers, patterned papers and pages on which she’s already drawn or painted.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Variety of papers cut to approximately the same size
- Scissors
- Sticky label (optional)
- Waxed linen thread
- Upholstery or book binding needle
- Awl
- File folder with metal fasteners
- Rubber bands
- Stapler
