This is one of my first "large" size journals (8.5 x 6 inches). The text block is Mohawk Superfine 80lb text sewn with linen thread on linen tapes. It's bradel bound on split boards (that are too thick for this width text block). The endbands are hand sewn Japanese buttonhole silk on hemp cores. The cover is covered in silk brocade bookcloth and a Chiyogami paper.
