Tennis and Sketching Journal in Camouflage

About half of my tennis students love to sketch and are involved in some art form.  The words on the left are spin pointers.  On the right, I dyed the end paper at June's house before she moved to England.

 I thought that adding a little string bling would jazz up the signatures.

Hopefully, the image on the left helps convert the orbs on the right into tennis balls.   I used waxed linen for the coptic binding and for the bookmark, waxed linen and a tennis string vibration dampener.  The entire book was a terrifically fun challenge.
