A kettle stitch bookbinding tutorial is coming! I can’t say exactly when but probably within the next couple weeks. This time I’m trying something new - I’m adding beads to the stitching #art #illustration #bookbinding #kettlestitch #sketchbooks

Couple FAQs about my kettle stitch book:
- “Is it for sale?” Unfortunately no as it‘s part of my coursework. I have lots of uni work rn but once it’s calmed down I may consider selling some
- “Can you teach us?” I’d love to! When my workload isn’t crazy I may upload a tutorial vid
