Craft Ideas, Part 4: Cloth-Covered Notebooks

I'm always looking for gift ideas that can be homemade and not expensive. These notebooks are the answer. I cut a piece of fusible webbing the size of the notebook cover. Then I cut diagonal pieces of fun fabrics. I sew them together to make the shape of a rectangle and I iron this patchwork to the fusible. I sew this directly onto the plastic notebook cover. (Use a denim needle.)



I sew along the diagonal seams and hot glue ribbon and trim. Throw a pen on the spiral and you're good to go!
