In this project video, I show you how to make a simple leather notebook cover for a Field Notes notebook cover.
This is a great entry level project and a great gift idea project. I make this cover out of 3/4 oz leather with minimal hand stitching. It's also a great use of scrap leather you may have laying around your shop.
We do offer a pattern pack for making one of these notebook covers. The pattern pack includes the cut patterns as well as 6 different floral patterns.
If you would like to purchase one, use the links below. We offer it in either a digital download that you print on your own printer, or a printed version that we mail out to you.
