Received. Looking great. Very pleased – thanks!
- Andrew, UK
I just wanted to say that Stacy absolutely loved the book. It looks fantastic and I'm very pleased with it also. Although I knew which materials and colours would be used, I never pictured that it would look and feel as good as it does. It was delivered nice and early on Saturday morning, perfect timing. Kind Regards
- Matt, UK
I have received the parcel, and have been receiving very favourable comments from friends and family. I think the result is most pleasing and the book was well worth saving in this way. Many thanks for your careful and attentive work

Thank you so so much for coming all this way to deliver the log books. I am totally thrilled with them. They are truly beautiful works of art and I know Paul will love them just as much as I do.
Paul is so delighted with his logbooks - he just kept saying Wow! Wow! Wow! And he also kept saying "these are even better than I hoped". So all in all, he is totally over the moon with them, and keeps picking them up and looking at them. The scent of leather is wafting around the room as I write!! I've actually filmed him opening the logbooks and will be sending the video to his parents in New Zealand, to give them a flavour of his joy and pleasure in his presents. The container etc is truly stunning also. A worthy setting for such beautiful works of art. I love the way you've created the lower aperture for the licenses and used the airway plotting chart maps too.
Thank you so very much from both of us - not just for the wonderful works of art you have made, but also for making the commissioning process so enjoyable and inclusive. It's been a total pleasure. Thank you for the illustrated narrative also. It's just wonderful and helps to explain all the photos that you've kindly sent me. I've now sent it to all the friends and family who contributed to Paul’s 60th present. Our friends here in Norwich have been marveling at the complex process required.
I'm so delighted with everything you've done Andrew. I know Paul is too. It's been a really lovely inclusive experience working with you. Just hope doing the container hasn't given you too many grey hairs, I can see what a challenge it must have been. All the very best and thank you so so much once again. A complete triumph!!!!!

I have received my copy of Shakespeare, which I am delighted with, thank you very much indeed, from a very grateful customer
- Iona, UK
The parcel arrived secure today. Thank you for very well wrapping! It's a lovely binding and I'm very happy to have it in my collection.
- Karsten, Germany
The books are fantastic, thank you!

Andrews bookbindery is fantastic! Small, cute, enough room for two people for working and with all tools and materials which you need. Andrew explained everything blow-by-blow and is present when you want him for questions. For self-employment works he leaves adequate free space and is open for news and encouragement. My placement with Andrew was brilliant, and he is to! Through the exchange of knowledge, learning of new techniques and functions, I can take a lot of experience going forward in my bookbinder career. Thanks a lot for all help, dear hearty man Andrew!
- Angela, Bookbinding student from Bavaria
Just a wee note to say thank you for the 2 days with you, and for working to my agenda and being so tolerant of all my questions. I have come away feeling that I have a wider understanding of leather design, and a sensible basis for the experimentation that I want to try; as well as the seeds of some skills. Real skill I know will take many more years in the developing, through more teaching and observation; but this is a start and ties up what I felt I missed at another Bookbinding course I attended in the summer - plus you gave so much more.
