Shop Update
Check Out the Merganser Notebook System Releasing on 8/13 at 6pm CT
I’m adding a new item to my website's shop tomorrow! Over the past year, I’ve been making small traveler’s notebook systems for friends as gifts, and now, I am so happy to share that I have a limited run available to purchase.
This is the Merganser Notebook system.




The Merganser Notebook is a bi-fold travelers notebook cover. It has a red, 1mm internal elastic cord to hold up to 2 notebooks. The external elastic cord is on the spine. The price includes two pocket sized notebooks (lined) and one Lucky Star charm- a bone colored leather charm hand-cut using Gingher shears. Inspired by quilt stars but turned on a point for a more organic shape.
Material: Italian semi-aniline leather with raw edges, 4.5oz thickness. Softens over time, but does not darken like vegetable-tanned leather.
Size: 5.75 x 8.25” open. Best fits Pocket (3.5 x 5.5”) or Passport sized notebooks. Comfortably holds 3-4 inserts.
Limited run, only three leather covers available.
I keep a pocket-sized system in my purse and it is comprised of a commonplace notebook for random notes, a plastic organizer with pockets for business cards and small ephemera, and a notebook for notes about my dog Finley. When I travel, I take out my dog’s notebook and add in my passport and a sketchbook.
I use inserts from Field Notes, Paper Republic, and Sterling Ink (none of these are sponsored or affiliated links).
Three Merganser Notebook systems will be available on Wednesday, 8/13/25, at 6:00pm Central Time. Priced at $50 ea. US shipping only. Packages will ship out Wednesday 8/21/25 with tracking.
Let me know if you have any questions before this release!
Thanks for being here,
KT
