One of my favourite projects to make for gifts are journal covers, and I particularly like the stitchery design on this one. The pattern is Friendship Notebook Cover by the Australian designer Gail Pan Designs. These ones have been hand embroidered with a selection of variegated Valdani perle threads, and have an A5 sized notebook inside. These journal covers are a great way of using up smaller pieces of fabric if you don't follow the cutting instructions in the pattern, and can easily be enlarged to fit any size of notebook. These have been wrapped and posted off this morning to some special friends - I hope they like them! I'll share some more more pictures over the next few days showing close ups of these pretty journal covers which have been embellished with vintage buttons, lace and ric-rac.
*I'd bought this pattern last year from Coast & Country Crafts and Quilts, and it's also available from Cross Patch
