Love your videos - I don't mind the long videos - I learn so much because you teach so well and so thorough.
Yay! Thank you!
I love your tutorials and don't mind long videos at all!
Thanks from a newbie. I have so much stash but have yet to make anything. Your videos look like they are easy to follow and i shall enjoy crafting with you Tracie
Start small. Take a look at my website about getting started...Just Do It :-D You will be so pleased with yourself xx
I could listen to you for hours! lol I really love your tutorials - they're just so easy to follow.
I love your technique on the corners.
Thanks so much!
Having watched the whole video I now realize the many mistakes I have made with my covers. I am looking forward to making another using your video as a guide.
Thank you. But I must admit I almost cried when you covered that beautiful marbled inside papers 😲 😉
Sorry huni xx
I don't mind long tutorials. If people do mind they can fast forward. I'll never understand how/why people feel it's necessary to complain about free information. No good deed goes unpunished. Please don't rush yourself you could make a mistake and hurt yourself.
stanky6261973 I totally agree!
Amen to Felnik! I adore Tracie's videos
i realize I am quite randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to stream newly released series online ?
@Kyler Nolan i would suggest FlixZone. Just google for it =)
@Guillermo Trace Yup, been watching on flixzone for since march myself =)
We don't hear the fly at all. All's good on this end. Fantastic video. Love the fabric also.
You are a lifesaver! I have never made any kind of junk journal but really want to make my brother-inlaw a prayer journal and had no idea how to make a cover. Thank you so much😊
Wow, thank you...xxx
I just read a comment saying she didn't mind long tutorials.....and I must ditto that. I do NOT mind them at all...in fact I love them. You are naturally gaining more information than short ones and the reason I even watch the 'good youTubers' as you are, is to learn as much as I can!!! And loved this one..truly was an important one for me, it was more thorough than I've seen and so inspirational! iT TURNED OUT BEAUTIFULLY!
Very helpful and easy!
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I’m trying my hand at fabric covers and this is a great example. Best regards from South Africa 🇿🇦 x perfect corners! 😃
Thank you for showing us your process for covering the board with fabric. I have tried this and now I know why it went so horribly wrong. I will have another go and get it right this time, with your help. I join your feelings about wasps, sat on one when I was a child, and Mum and Dad were laughing so much they couldn't do anything to help for a bit!
Ah Gail, thats pants! I was stung twice bu wasps when I was a kid. The second time was because I squashed one with my had to get it back for being stung the first time! LOL. I was stung by a bee a coupke of years ago...that really was not nice :-( xxx
Tracie, you are right, that fabric is gorgeous. There is just something about roses that everyone loves. Thank you for all the details about the edges and corners. I think a lot of us struggle with frustration in getting the details just right. Beautifully done and such a great tutorial.
Thank you so much for converting cm to inches. You are so generous with your information, I think I love you :)
What a beautiful book cover you have made.I appreciate the steps and time you take to show what you're doing and why.
Thank you huni xx
Thank you for showing this. It turned out so tidy and crisp.
I'm thinking of starting my first journal and these videos are wonderful. Thank you so much!
Great tut! Thanks!
Thankyou so much Tracy for sharing this tutorial!!!! It’s made the job appear much simpler with a better Finish than how I make mine.
I’m still only a year into making journals and need to practice making hard covers !!!!!! On to the next video ❤️😊xx
LOL, I have been doing this since last Feb, so 18 months. Don't stress...you got this :-D xxx
Very clean looking. I would have hard a hard time covering the gorgeous marble pattern though lol x
Great tips Tracie!!! Thank you!!!
THANKS FOR ANOTHER WONDERFUL VIDEO, EVERYTHING U DO, IS INSPIRING TO ME.
LIKE TO SAY, YOU GO WAY PAST INSTRUCTIONS FOR CRAFTERS, FOR THE LONELY, AND THOSE WITH DEPRESSION, YOU REACH AND TOUCH SO MANY LIVES.
THANKS💜 BETTER FOR IT 😊
Ah thank you huni xx
This is very helpful! Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous fabric! Thank you for sharing.
thank you Tracie, this tutorial has been very informative. I love the fabric you used on the cover - beautiful!
YAY, for non-leaking roofs! AWESOME tutorial. I like how you use a brush to smooth out the glue after application--gonna use that! Such pretty fabric, too (and I didn't hear the fly, but that could be my ol' lady ears). ;-) THANKS, Tracie!
LOL, it was so close to my head that fly...Thank you so much huni xxx
Thanks Tracie, I love your work. You make it look so easy. Take care!
You make that look so easy- I haven’t jumped on the hard cover train yet, however, I might do now! Thank you. 💗
I loved watching this tutorial. It is so informative and your are such a joy to listen to. I love the clean edges your technique provide. Mahalo for sharing !
BEAUTIFUL!! WOW! LOVE THE PROCESS!! THANK YOU SO MUCH TRACIE!!! Truly!! Xx
Thank you so much for a very clear tutorial!
Great tutorial - thank you for all the tips and details!
Thank you so much for this video really had no idea where to start and this will truly give me the confidence to go for it all the best Tracie love that fabric !!!
Thanks for sharing your process. I find that alieens tacky glue works good on fabric if I use a brush with a little bit of water to spread it out. It's still tacky but I find it lays really nicely with that itty bitty bit of water on my brush.
P.S. I couldn't hear the fly! Hope it was a fly...
It was 2 flies LOL xx
Thanks for sharing your process!
Thank you! I had so much trouble doing a fabric covered book. Can’t wait to try again.
Fantastic, thank you so much Tracie xx
Perfect Corners!! TFS!

Great tutorial, thank you.
Hi Tracy. I don't mind long tutorials either it gives me time to watch carefully what you are doing instead of rushing through and then i think
"What was that"? Thank you for this one I have done my grandchildren a smallish one each but now I have collected things for mine. Can you please tell me if you do follow on ones so i can go from start to finish with you. I am still working my way round You Tube and very often find one part then loose the rest. Thank you for taking the time to teach us. Hugs and Luvs xxx P.S. I couldn't hear the fly but totally agree with you and wasps. xxxx
fabric is lush. What a big book you must of had! enjoy the chinese take away :)
Carol I cant move! LOL xx
Luuuv the fabric!! Bon Appetit !
Very helpful. TFS
New subscriber! I love journals!
Welcome Regina x
@@TracieFoxCreative Hello! You have a great channel! Thanks for sharing! I hope you will come by my channel and we can support one another!
Thank you so much Tracie that’s so awesome and fantastic.......you’re so talented and clever and I really love 💕 that fabric too........ beautiful xx Mags
Centimeters are so much easier. I don’t know why we’re so dumb here in the states to still use inches. I love your method!
This is an excellent tutorial! I’m ready to make one of these. Can bookbinding glue be used instead of fabric glue? Or are the properties of those glue is quite different? I’m asking because I have a lot of bookbinding glue! 😊
Done ready for part two, please make it easy lol
LOL, I try :-D xx
Gorgeous material and a great tutorial. Couldn't hear your fly 😊
I am gald you could not hear it. Is was so close to my head lol xxx
So pretty.
Love this video! Your work is always so awesome! Please let me know what and where can I get that thing on your ruler that helps hold it down. I need that badly!! Thanks a bunch...Linda
I purchased the ruler like that xx
Hahaha... was one of your lads there when you were filming lovey? cause when you said about getting Chinese and said i am not cooking, about 2 sec after (aprox 19.48) you hear a youngish male voice say yumyum....lol 🤣 great video as usual Tracie xox 🥰
hehe must be Sebastian I guess lol xx
💗!! TYFS.
Tracie, what kind of material do you use? The cover is beautiful.
Hi, I think I mentioned in the video this is a vintage fabric. Its what I would describe as a medium weight. The fawn colour fabric is not so old and a lighter weight. Can't really be more specific. I get most of my fabric from a local vintage store. x
That’s funny. I’m constantly converting cm to inches and back. I should just learn both already.
Hi"💜 is that hi-tec fabric glue good??? I'm buying becon's fabric glue but it's a bit expensive
Its great but pretty expensive too xx
Tracie are you the crafter who lives in Cork?
Pat from California
No huni, I am in Suffolk x
What's the most pages you put in your journals?
Where is your beautiful fabric from? X
/this is a vintage fabric I got at a local vintage store. xx
Tracie where do you get the book board from?
From large books if you want to recycle or I get new from a book binding shop in London called Shepard xx
Thanks Tracie. I grew up in London but live in Australia
Awesome... 💖 love the way you fold in the edges to flip them in, that is really helpful.... I see why you have such long thumb nails 😂😂😂
LOL, they are due to break anytime! LOL xx
Sorry just saw the beginning of the book cover.
I experimented with my gloopy FabriTac and learned that I can thin it out with pure acetone (no color, just pure acetone from the beauty supply shop). This make it a little easier to work with but it does NOT change all the wonderful features of this super strong glue! FabriTac is my favorite glue and I use it for nearly everything! Hope this tip helps!
