Journal in honor of Sense and Sensibility


Like all Janeites I'm celebrating the bicentenary of Sense and Sensibility on my blog, Jane Austen in Portuguese, and also with my handmade journals. 


These two notebooks are based on C. E. Brock's illustrations (from my Jane Austen's collection) and they portray the Dashwood sisters and their boyfriends. Here I must apologize to Colonel Brandon's fans, but there is not a unique romantic illustration of the colonel! Not in my book or in my opinion.

    amazing - i didn't know it was the S&S bicentenary

    i have been at work composing a tune entitled "Music for Margaret" in honor of Margaret Dashwood

    so i am happy to think of it as my contribution to the bicentenary as well :)
