This luxurious handmade Memory Book is bound in the finest quality Duck Egg leather with heritage style exposed spine stitching in Coral. This leather scrapbook embodies the best of British craftsmanship and is a special place for your treasured memories.
It has 128 pages of heavy weight acid-free paper with spacers in the spine for your photographs, clippings, cards and handwritten contributions. It's a softcover, flexible style of scrapbook, whose pages lay flat on a table so it's easy to write in, stick in mementoes and you'll enjoy leafing through it for years to come.
"The quality and craftwork is exceptional and we are so delighted that this will hold what will be special memories of our wedding day." - Laura, Leicestershire.
Carefully hand bound in soft pastel colours, this leather Memory Book is ideal for all wedding related events such as an engagement, as a guest book, a first (paper) or third (leather) anniversary gift.
It's also popular for retirements and big birthday celebrations, as well as becoming a popular choice as a memorial album, as many people choose colour to celebrate a life, rather than traditional black these days.
"It's always difficult ordering online without actually seeing the finished goods but I'm so glad I did.
The leather memory book is exactly as I imagined. Beautifully made with a wonderful feel and smell." - Lee, Lancashire
Using time-honoured bookbinding techniques and archival materials, I use the 15th century Longstitch with Linkstitch binding style to create a luxurious scrapbook which is at once very practical and durable, but also incredibly beautiful. The exposed spine binding gives the memory book lay-flat pages and adds to its beauty.
It's the perfect heirloom treasure for safeguarding memories of a special person or special event.
Your leather Memory Book can be personalised with printed text of your choice on the first page. This is a wonderful way to make your book extra special at noextra cost.

Our memory book is for a close work colleague who passed away unexpectedly for people to write in & to put photos in to give to her family.
We wanted colour and the duck egg blue with coral stitching make a gorgeous combination. The quality of the leather and the paper are superb.
Susan was able to write in the first page and include a photo which has made the book feel bespoke and crafted especially for us.
From when i first contacted Susan, she has been efficient, helpful fulfilled entirely on the promise of exactly what we wanted.
I'm so glad that the book met your expectations, Leonie. And I'm honoured that you and your colleages chose this Memory Book to remember your dear colleague by. Thank you for mentioning the quality of materials and the personalisation - it means a lot to know that it helped make the book just right for you. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review.
Susan made a beautiful memory book for my sister in law's birthday. Having gathered hundreds of photos from all her friends I laboriously selected the best ones to go into the book. The page spaces meant that it fleshed out wonderfully to accept all the extra volume of the photos, plus envelopes with handwritten messages and other pages printed out and stuck in.
It resulted in lots of tears (of happiness) wish was the mission objective, and it's a beautiful object. Only problem is I've now set the bar far too high for the rest of my family's celebrations!
thanks susan for a fantastic book. the leather is wonderfully soft, the stitching incredibly good quality and the page spacings great for allowing the book to slowly fill up to it's idea size.
Opening the tissue paper to see and smell the book for the first time was emotional. I’d ordered it as a memorial book to keep my precious memories of my recently deceased mother. And having seen Susan at work in her studio I knew I wanted one her beautiful books. It’s the most fitting tribute I could think of to my mum. A book made with love to remember someone i love.
I'm so glad that you found the right book and I'm honoured that you chose one of my books for such a meaningful purpose, Alison. Thank you for sharing such a personal and moving experience, and for mentioning your visit to the studio too. I hope the book is helping you gather all the precious memories of your mother.
I ordered an A4 book as an engagement present for my fiancée. Susan immediately sent me proofs of the book and my chosen title page wording and worked with me through the process to ensure the finished product was perfect.
Susan was also extremely accommodating of my tight deadline as I wanted to present it to her during an engagement party. My now wife loved it and used it as a wedding ideas scrapbook. It has pride of place on our bookshelf and I look forward to rediscovering it as the years go on.
Thank you Susan!
