Art Journal Cover for 2018

For 2018, I have decided to make my own art journal with my favorite paper-Strathmore 400 series paper- and bind the pages using embroidery thread.  I love the Dylusions journals but found that it gets so fat that I can't use the last third of the pages because it won't lay flat anymore.  We will see how this goes.  I have used this type of art journal before and loved it.  However, it took a while to assemble with all of the sewing.  Effy Wild has an excellent tutorial if you are interested in binding your own journals :-)  https://vimeo.com/56572967
