The Picture of Dorian Gray

Dorian Gray - Finished Front Cover

A coptic-stitch binding of Oscar Wilde's novel, using a text from Project Gutenberg.  The front and back are covered in a suede-like paper I found at the craft store, and the stitching is done using silver embroidery floss.  Both front and back covers are embellished with stitchwork called catepillars or centipedes at the top and bottom.
