While it took me much longer then I thought it would, it was well worth it. I first stitched together all the pieces of the cover then worked on the 15 signatures (150 pages), sewed them in and attached the strap. I had intended on having it like a snap like the original, but the wrap allowed for expanding and the leather stretching over time. I love now that its finished and can't wait to start filling it with new creations and art work.
