I’ve just been tired and needed a break. The world feels pretty heavy right now. I still have a lot of ideas, but with everything going on, it’s hard to feel like making art fits into the moment.

I've gone back to bookbinding to help pass time. If anyone is interested in taking them off my hands, feel free to browse the newest section of my Etsy shop for these hand bound books!

🧧 Lunar New Year Coptic Stitch Journal 🧧

Here are some still pictures of my new coptic stitch book. The cover is black marbled paper, with a cutout to display the lucky red envelope my mom gave me this year for Lunar New Year.

I think this book took five hours from start to finish.

#bookbinding people who've done #copticstitch, i've been practicing it with the aid of youtube tutorials and i feel like there's a step i'm missing when attaching the last signature and front cover that's almost like a skipped stitch, but i'm pretty sure i'm following the guides step by step. does this sound at all familiar?
