This was a very different kind of project, and I certainly didn't make it look exactly like the journal in the game (real leather doesn't look like that, not until it's rotting anyway), but it was a whole new kind of binding: I'd never done anything like long stitch before!

I ended up stitching the signatures to a much thinner piece of leather and then gluing that to the leather cover, instead of the traditional long stitch through the spine of the cover itself. The strap closure is riveted to the back and uses a button stud in front to stay in place: also something I hadn't done before!

Huge shout-out to @cassiefisherdrake for rendering the label into something I could print out and tea stain, and @gustavesclairespiercing for rendering the icon into something my Cricut wouldn't mangle! My artistic talents are emphatically not in the digital realm, so I really appreciate these two helping out!

ANYWAY! Who wants to read my 15 PAGE DOCUMENT about Lumière and its people??
