While working on the Observatorium Sketchbook, one of the biggest struggles I had, was finding information on how to cope with the less than standard shape I chose for it. And no struggle was greater than trying to figure out how to wrap the circular hardcover with fabric.
If you’re also a traveler on the roads less traveled of craft-land, I hope that this short post covers the information that I found missing on my journey, so you can do more of the fun part, and less of the frustrated attempts, filled with flying fabric and sticky glue fingers.
