Okay so I finally got a sewing machine which meant I could bring some of my pen-carrying thoughts to life. I designed & made a couple of these for christmas (and a couple for myself) and I just have to share - I'm particularly proud of hiding the partition stitching on the back both beneath the band that holds the flap in place and under the pocket into which you can slip the field notes. I wonder if I could sell these? And a couple of fandom ones (I made the tardis one for my dad for christmas - shhh!)
