LINEAGE SIGHTLINE fabric sketchbook

About this book: This book is covered in fabric with the pattern Sightline/Cathey from my fourth collection, LINEAGE, in collaboration with Free Spirit Fabrics.

I found my first set of discarded publishing blanks or (dummies) in a huge pile at one of my favorite reuse centers in Oakland about a year ago. All these beautiful empty white book forms just sat there waiting to become something—what I hadn’t figured out yet—I just knew they needed a fresh start. So I bought the whole stack and then stacks more, and little by little, they have become part of this new blank slate journal/sketchbook series.

The materials used in this series are chosen and designed specifically for each existing book form. Because the forms are already put together, I get to spend lots of time on design instead of sewing the form. These books are layered with spray paint, drawings, hand printed/painted papers and love…

All books in this series are one-of-a-kind. Read the following specs carefully.
(I have filled out as much information about the paper weight, texture, surface, etc… but some of the book forms have been acquired with no descriptions. I will guess as best I can in some instances. Artists: feel free to contact me if there is a certain medium you use and you want to be sure the paper will be suitable. I can try to test the surface for you as best I can.)
