I suppose this should go here, since most of it is hand stitching! I spent more hours than I can remember handstitching this collage book cover: I machine stitched the inside sleeves and used the machine to attach them and the strap/closure, but everything else is hand stitched. There are more pics on my blog: feltbyzed.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/felt-collage-book-cover.html

I agree, I wouldn't have the patience or the stamina to do that much. Great job!

It is great, a labour of love. Sure makes you appreciate anything that is hand sewn or quilted. I hope this one is for yourself.

Thanks a lot, everyone Yeah, this one is for me, I got stuck waiting by the phone one day, so put youtube on and got my offcuts out and started sewing. It is hard to try not to do it 'too neat', but it's good for days with tired eyes
