Field Notes Vignette Edition 3-Pack
The Spring 2020 edition of Field Notes is called "Vignette", and allows you to personalise the covers of your Field Notes books. The Vignette Memo Books, all with graph paper inside, feature a clever die-cut pocket that allows you to include your own image as an integrated part of the cover design. The people at Field Notes observed how we all tend to customize our Field Notes covers with a sticker, title, sketch, or stamp. The “Vignette” Edition makes that sort of personalization quick and easy, resulting in a very slick finished product.
This set contains two stippled “Charcoal Gray” books and one super-bright “Terra Green” book. They’ve also included a set of Field Notes-themed insert cards for you to play around with, to see how the “Vignette” personalization system works. But after you try those out, get to work on your own.
