How To Make A Custom Leather Notebook Cover

Take a look at how I make a custom leather notebook cover using locally sourced materials (mainly offcuts)

Comments always welcome!

Some tools and materials I used:

► Leather: AW Midgley & Son / Sedgwick & Co
► Thread: Black Tiger .8
► Needles: John James
► Misc Tools: Tandy
► Vernis Edge Wax: Mando.fr
► Fileteuse Manuelle: Mando.fr
► 2tn Arbor Press: Axminster Tools

Like many, I'm pretty much self taught. However there are some Youtube resources that helped me learn:

Ian Atkinson (Leodis Leather) - This notebook cover is based upon his pattern pack which I recommend you get.

Armitage Leather - Nigel helps massively with traditional techniques.
