Vintage Dress Pattern Journal
The cover of this handmade journal from Left Hand Books features images from McCall’s pattern 5780 – a dress straight out of the ‘Mad Men’ era. The front of the journal features the two variation of the dress that could be made from this pattern and the back cover shows the instructions from the reverse of the pattern envelope – complete with markings from the dressmaker.
The spine is pink buckram (book cloth) which compliments the dress pictured on the cover and the journal is finished off with a matching pink satin ribbon bookmark.
The paper is quality (approx 140 gsm) with a creamy, smooth texture - beautiful for writing on. Ball points will glide across the page and fountain pens will not bleed. The hand torn pages are blank for you to write or draw on.
Dimensions:
17.5 x 24 cm (Approx. A5)
8 signatures hand sewn
128 hand torn pages
Satin ribbon bookmark
Limited edition (Individually numbered)
This journal comes presented in a handmade calico bag
