How to make a fabric notebook cover ...


It's not even a how to. It's just a "now lay, now cut, now sew". So easy, super cute & re-usable. Of course that last bit makes me love it most of all. If you make one you'll be able to use this cover on notebook after notebook after notebook.



You can pick up the PDF tutorial here as well as the PDF menu planner if you decide you'd like to make yourself a full year menu planner.

This is not as easy for some as you think!!
oh it would be so good to win this, because i just followed the tutorial and I am thoroughly confused. I dont know how to sew, and i better take a class before I try something on my own like this!

A great idea and a great melding of reuse, recycle etc. that looks good. A winning combo, if you ask me.

Thanks for such a simple straight forward tute.... I've been wanting to cover a notebook for a while but couldn't be bothered to sort out the complecated tute that I've seen. This is just what I needed

zofia said...

These are such an excellent idea. I need to plan, and I write my meal ideas and lists on little scraps of calender paper, which if I don't have pockets on, I lose!
