Made new listings today and tried to get all colors framed and photographed...I'm afraid I didn't get all colors, but most of them are here =)
Fieldnotes sized Traveler's notebook with 3 inserts, a WOTP diary, an address book and a lined insert
This Coptic bound book features beautiful handmade Indian cotton paper, and chiyogami Japanese paper. The diagonal stitching I created by drawing out the pattern I wanted finished on the spine with a pencil, then punching all the sewing stations from the back (the "mountain peak").
A little bonus is the lined pages - I figured out that I could just print them on my computer!
The journal is filled with 160 pages of 60lb acid free sketch paper.

Today (Monday) is the National holidays in my country, and I'm gonna go to a home party of one of my firiends from now on. So I would post my article about this project to my blog after I came back. (Maybe, tommorow.)
Sorry for the inconvenience for the people are used to enjoy reading it.

Notebook made using all natural and recycled material. The pages inside are 100% recycled paper. The cover is a sheet of handmade paper that I made using my green paper scraps. Bound onto a leafy twig from the back yard.
Bound using the same method as my "chopstick notebooks" - tutorial here:

There is all my job´s planning for the days of the week and all the written related stuff I need to do my workload.
what i didn't anticipate - but should have - given his love of writing down his thoughts is that odin would be very keen on taking a few ( i.e. all ) of the notebooks for his own use.
odin: "hey, those look great. can i have them?"
me: "uuuuuhhhh. i was really planning on these using these around the house and at work."
odin: "oooooh, c'mon! i can have at least one, right?"
me: "o.k. one will be fine for now. we'll order more. pick one."
i secretly hope he doesn't pick the red "amber" notebook because i like the color as it slowly dawns on me that i'm giving him the option of choosing a notebook dedicated to a style of beer and wonder if he's going to take it to school.
gah. he chose amber. now i'm thinking i have to order some winter editions and swap them out on the chance he wants to use it for notes at school :-)
Japanese stationery giant KOKUYO launched the Systemic series of notebook cover since Nov 2008. I totally missed this new product range but when I was in a trip to Shanghai meeting KOKUYO representatives there, I saw a nice leaflet for Systemic and enquired about it. A few days ago I received samples and found them very pleasant to use.
The Systemic series has 3 sizes (B5, A5 and A6) and two colors to choose from. Although the cover is specifically designed for Campus notebooks in the same sizes, I found that the A5 and A6 versions also work well with Moleskine's large and pocket size notebooks!!!
It is really a simple non-intrusive notebook cover. You can insert any two of the wide variety of Campus notebooks in it. The Campus notebook line also has free or dated diary versions so it can easily be used for business or personal. A nice looking ribbon tied to eyelets makes two bookmarks. An outer pocket on both the front and back cover provides temporary storage and act as a pen holder. A good quality elastic band provides enclosure function.
I think it is a great answer to many people who like to consistently use a refillable notebook but need an outer jacket/cover to hold more items or have a better presentation. To Moleskine fans who are yet to find a nice cover, this might be an answer too.

Two filled with Lonely Planet researchy goodness, and one new one that I'm about to start using. That's how flat the notebook is before I start stapling business cards into it.
For the record, these are simple Muji notebooks that go for S$2.90 apiece.
my NEW notebooks...designed and made by me, all are completely handsewn and very colourful :-)
