Megan makes sketchbooks, notebooks and bespoke books, with handmade, watercolour and pattern papers, leather, vellum and linen.
Each book is made by hand in my studio in West Somerset, using traditional bookbinding techniques and archival materials, with a contemporary feel. I'm inspired by the natural beauty of paper, linen and leather, and aim to make books that feel calm and subtle, brought to life by areas of colour, pattern or texture. The tactile nature of a book is also important to me; there is something so magical about the feel of a book in your hands and the movement of the turning pages. My books are practical, made to be used and to last.
I trained in Bookbinding at Brighton University. As well as making books for sale and to commission, I repair books and teach bookbinding.
