how-to of the day - fabric covered notebooks
I love notebooks! I think I probably have a dozen of them in my studio at any given time. But, not all notebooks are all that decorative, so what’s a fabric hound to do?
Cover them in beautiful fabric of course :-)
For this project, you’ll need a notebook, scissors, spray basting glue (I use Elmer’s spray glue), a good quality white glue (I like the Ultimate), some light weight batting (I’m using Warm & White for this project) and of course, the fabric you’re using to cover the notebook!
We’ll start working on your book tomorrow.

I’m laughing because I’m wearing a summer dress of that material. I think it will look neat as a book cover too.

That’s too funny Karen! I only bought a metre of that print, but I love it :-)
