The Long Stitch books are bound with fine linen bookbinder's thread and contain about 60 blank pages of 80 pound drawing paper with a moderate tooth. They open flat for  drawing or journal keeping. The paper is ideal for using dry mediums—pencil, charcoal, colored pencil, and pen, etc. These one- of- a kind books measure 4 1/2 x 6 inches and are beautifully embellished with hand printed covers.
