Nothing Left Fether Notebook - Pebble Grey

Super cute

This notebook was a gift for someone else, so I haven't had a chance to test it myself. I see that at least one reviewer had trouble with ink bleeding and feathering, so I'm now a little concerned that my gift may be a disappointment.

Good quality paper, nice cover, elastic has left a permanent imprint on cover.

Good paper for practicing. Solid enough to hold the ink,but not so thick that I can’t see my 55º guidelines for copperplate behind it :) perfectly purse sized.

Nice little book - but sadly had to give it a 3.

Nicely bound and good size for carrying with you. Nice cover, my colour was neutral (pebble). Has possibility for dates at top. Dot grid very nice and light, so not to distract. Decent amount of pages. Got this on sale as a last minute purchase to try it out.

BUT, likely you will have to write VERY light with your ink. That being said - try out different inks (and various brands), because they will likely perform differently. When I wrote with a non-FWP ink (Norton's Walmut) I had no problems, even with pressure and no bleed through.

Most of the FWP inks that I just had on my desk at the time, would bleed and come though the other side with a dip pen and normal pressure. Drier inks were a bit harder to write with on the paper (Treasured Manuscript).

Writing or printing LIGHT (and or fast and light) had no bleed through or bleeding, But that means this paper will LIMIT you. For example you could not use this book for swatching or painting or calligraphy. As a journal you would have to test your ink because even normal printing pressure would bleed with some letters and definitely bleed through to the other side.

I leave an image for a quick test of the page (front and back). I find it odd that FWP would not test this with their own inks, but maybe that is why it is on sale and they will improve this problem. . Some people might rate this as a 1 because of these problems.

Fits perfectly in my standard Traveler's Notebook
