Making Miniature Leather Bound Journals

I've been making these tiny journals for almost a year now - My initial book pendants were a bit clunky, almost cartoonish. They've come far since then, so I decided to share the process of making one. It doesn't take a lot of skill, but does require patience.

Initially, perfecting the chain-link (the stitches on the top and bottom of the spine) took some time to figure out as every piece seemed to have a stich missing. Eventually, I figured it out - You'll see this when I point out the seemingly pointless loops left behind in my first stitches. Worth the extra bit of time and effort as it gives each piece a polished look.
