I’m trying to make a journal/planner cover that I love. These are my first 3 attempts. I can tell they are improving. I’m looking for advice on best places to get good quality leather. The first two are with Tandy Leather and the last is buckleguy. I only bought a panel (which I now realize was a bad idea). I’m also looking for suggestions on ways to improve the look in general. I’ve reduced the degree of my corners and the grommets. I have a pocket on the right side and a large one in the middle back. Each one has been saddle stitched.
