You've found Re-Born Books by The Patchwork Kitty

Hand rebound and designed by me using pre-loved books.

Due to the nature of using pre-owned books, minor cosmetic damage should be expected. This is my way of giving old books a new beautiful second life!


This hardcover book is rebound in book cloth and metallic holographic vinyl and features matte patterned custom end pages.

This is a Ready-made handcrafted rebound hardcover of Laura Ingalls Wilder's classic novel, Little House on the Prairie using a lovely 1963 illustrated edition (illustrations by Garth Williams). This book was lovingly and painstakingly cleaned and sanitized prior to recovering. 


My Process:

I take preloved versions of classic books, and design beautiful, unique hardcovers for them. This is an involved process of gently cleaning and dismantling the book, cutting a new hard cover and book cloth by hand, attaching new end pages, re-binding the spine, designing images for the front back and spine covers, translating it onto vinyl, cutting, weeding, and applying the new vinyl images to the cover, painting the edges (when noted), attaching a bookmark (when noted), then finally assembling everything. The entire process can take several weeks for a single book. The hardcover is custom made and created from start to finish. This is a one of a kind, rebound, hardcover book that is unlike any other as I never fully repeat ANY of my designs! Although, I do repeat cover designs from time to time, I can assure that even when the cover design is similar (or even the same), there will always be some element that makes each book completely unique. I treat my Rebound Books like pieces of art to be treasured.
