The Legacy Patchwork Journal joins two crafts in a single cover: a frame of repurposed leather, and panels of block-printed fabric made by artisans local to our partner workshops in India. Every cover is cut, pieced, and stitched by hand, and because the fabric is salvaged remnant by remnant, no two covers are exactly alike. The leather is finished with natural vegetable dyes, so its undertone shifts a little from season to season; your journal is a record of when it was made as much as of what you write in it.

Inside are 100 unlined pages of thick 120 gsm tree-free khadi cotton paper, handmade from cotton waste. It's paper that loves ink and resists bleed-through, with a texture under the pen that suits reflective writing, sketches, and poetry equally.

When the pages fill, the cover stays. The journal takes 8" x 6" notebook inserts, so the patchwork frame carries years of writing while only the pages change.

Choose from three patchwork styles, each photographed exactly as it ships. It makes a considered gift for a Valentine, an anniversary, or anyone who keeps beautiful things in daily use. Make it theirs before it ships: add a name, a date, or a line of your own, up to 20 characters, printed in black ink and ready in about two business days. Personalized journals are made just for you and are final sale.

Customer photo review of Glass Dip Pen Set With Ink

The inks were alright, but with as little experience I had with glass pens, it was an awesome tool to use! Additionally, I am quite amazed to see it come in one piece, all of the parts worked as I thought they would. I would honestly buy from here again!

Customer photo review of Feel Deeply Quote Leather Journal - 7x5

The words aren't very dark on the quote so I was a little bummed about that. You can't really read it super well. But other than that it's a great journal.

Customer photo review of Weird And Wonderful Quote Leather Journal - 5x7 Lined

This is probably my favorite journal I've bought from Soothi. I love the fun quote on the front, and I'm a huge fan of the lined paper. I wish more of the journals had the options for lines! Overall beautiful journal.

Such a beautiful journal, hand made leather. Can’t wait to make more family memories to write in my clean canvas journal. You also get sent a card to plant your very own tree with every journal! How amazing is that! ❤️🌳❤️🌳

Customer photo review of "If A Story" Handmade Leather Journal

The Soothi "If A Story" Handmade Leather Journal is a beautiful, well-crafted notebook ideal for writers, travelers, or anyone who appreciates quality stationery. Wrapped in a gorgeous, rustic leather cover that softens with age, it features a motivational quote by William Faulkner for a touch of inspiration. With 100 blank pages for writing, sketching, or brainstorming, the unlined format offers complete creative freedom. The handy 7" x 5" size makes it portable and perfect for taking anywhere. But it's not just functional – the rich leather is a pleasure to hold and adds a touch of elegance to any desk. It's as beautiful to look at as it is to write in.

Customer photo review of "Oops" Item

I ordered an "oops" item and received that perfect little journal. I love it and am very happy with it. I have bought several things from Soothi over the years and I have been super stoked about everything I have received. Great craftsmanship, it's practically an art. I highly recommend this shop when you're shopping for self-care/love or a gift for someone special.

Customer photo review of Lock Vintage Handmade Leather Journal

Love the quality of the leather. Feels weathered and wears well. Surprisingly light journal considering the amount of pages and leather binding. Nice pen compartment, though I only use it if I'm traveling. To note: If you do watercolor, the pages are heavy but slightly yellowed.

Customer photo review of Weird And Wonderful Quote Leather Journal - 5x7 Lined

I like this journal so much that I bought 3 of them....1 for me and 2 for my weird and wonderful friends. It doesn't just say Weird and Wonderful, however. The complete quote on the journal is "all things Weird and Wonderful". It's a great soft leather journal with awesome lined pages and a string tie.

Customer photo review of Earth Element Refillable Stone Leather Journal

"Earth Element Refillable Stone Leather Journal" has a very beautiful cover. BUT the binding of the papers inside is different from other non-refillable journals. Not easy to use. So I returned it. Please take a careful look at the picture of the papers inside the journal, especially the binding area.

Customer photo review of "If A Story" Handmade Leather Journal

I was skeptical since I've never bought from this site, but......... Bought this journal for my Father-In-Law for Christmas this year (Christmas 2023 photos) who's been writing in journals all of his life, he said this is one of the best he's ever had. The leather smell hit him when he first opened the box, it hit us all! He loved it! The book, the smell, the inscription! He said he couldn't wait to start writing in it at the beginning of the 2024 year, which just happens to be TODAY! Thanks for helping me with this great gift!

I wasn’t too worried about the printing on the front so I opted for a mistake book. It’s absolutely gorgeous:)

Customer photo review of I Can Choose Quote Leather Journal - 8x6 Size

Not the same color leather stain as in the promotional photo. Was drawn to it for the look, but didn’t come like that at all. Same stain as everything else. I like soothi journals so I’ll use it, but it’ll probably be a bit before I buy anymore due to mistaken advertising - I wanna buy what I know I’m gonna get.

Customer photo review of "Oops" Item

I thought I was getting an oops item like a journal, but it’s literally what one sees in the photo - some oops 10 pk of blank cards - which I had no idea what it was until it showed up and I realized I just bought the most expensive blank note cards I’ve ever purchased in my life. Not worth it. Envelopes flimsy and I don’t know what I’d ever use these for. But because it’s an oops item there are no returns.

Customer photo review of Madness Quote Leather Journal - 5x7 Lined

Some blotchy leather stain on the back and some inadequate stain on the front lettering, but it’s a beautiful journal otherwise. Just has QC overlooked cosmetic character. I typically like the soothi journals though.

Larger than I expected...may actually have to reinforce the handle at attachment point cuz I keep loading it up with so much stuff ;) Sheds a little but I expect that will lessen over time. A real attention getter cuz of the fun quote!

Customer photo review of Soothi Mystery Box

It’s like this was made for me. I came with three journals of different styles. One for my short stories, where I can take out the inserts, one for doing planning of a novel, and one for me to start writing about my writing journal to pass on to my children. The cards are beautiful. The bag accessories are well-made, and I absolutely love the pencil leather pencil case. Of course now that I have a little leather passport cover, I need to actually get off my butt and get a passport to put inside. Definitely overjoyed with the product, and I really love surprise boxes, because you never know what you’re going to get.
