how-to of the day - fabric covered notebooks

by Chloe on July 16th, 2008

Your notebook should be dry enough for the next step!

We need to glue the fabric to the sides of the notebook now.  Run a bead of white glue down the side of the front cover - slightly narrower that the flap of fabric.  It should look like this:

 Fold the fabric over the glue and smooth it out - make sure there aren’t any bubbles or puckers in the fabric.

 Repeat on the back cover.

The book should now look like this when it’s closed:

The fabric is nice and smooth on the front cover, and the book closely flat.

Let the glue dry overnight and we’ll start the next step tomorrow!
