      You are so welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful! I am working on a new notebook cover video tutorial. It fits on a regular notebook instead of a composition notebook and it has an optional zippered pencil case made onto the front. Thanks for watching and leaving me a comment! Happy Sewing!

My mom lives down in Augusta, and went to one of the Marden’s that is local to her, looking for Tula pink fabric like what I found at ours. Unfortunately, that one didn’t have any. A person just never knows what you’re going to find in that store, ha ha. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write a comment to me. Have a wonderful week!

      Well, it sounds like the video came just in the nick of time, ha ha! I’m happy to know that you and so many others found it helpful and timely. Hubby and I went to Walmart this morning and I had composition notebooks on my list, since I had found them for $.50 each last week. Well guess what? They’re completely sold out. I asked when they would be back in stock and they’re hoping for around the 12th. Fingers crossed that they get them back in and they’re still on sale. I’m sorry that you had to order yours and can’t get them locally! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. Have a wonderful week!

Sorry you didn’t find yours at Walmart. That you were able to find someone to answer your question is terrific! The two in my town have cut back on staff so much it’s difficult here. When they stopped having fabric cutting personnel I pretty much stopped shopping there. 🙃

      You are so welcome! I’m so happy that you enjoyed this project! Oh, I wanted to ask you a question. I’m sure you noticed the front of one of the notebooks has a piece of fabric that you sent to me (at least I think you did, if my memory is correct, ha ha). It looks like a Loralie Harris fabric, but I wasn’t sure if it was, or not. The reason I ask is that our granddaughter saw that yesterday and went crazy over it when she saw it on the front of the notebook so I would like to try to find a few more pieces of it to make something for her. Thanks in advance for any information you might be able to provide. Take care and happy sewing!

    Just a suggestion, maybe it's because it's on my Christmas wish list. You need a rotating cutting mat when you do your scrappy creations. Add it to your Amazon wish list, if you don't have one. Should make it easier on the hands. Thank you for all your great ideas! Love your channel.

      Hi! Your comment made me chuckle at the part "maybe because I have one on my Christmas list". Lol! I do have one, but I found its size (12x12) is quite prohibitive, so I don't use it. I do have a larger one on my wishlist. I think it's 18" x 18", but it's pricey.

I just turned 90 in November and I wish I felt a lot better than I do but I do my best to keep on going and you’ve helped me do that and I have made many bags. Everybody loves my bags and I put hand chips in them and thimbles and I have a lot of collections and I have to use them up before I die, so I would like to send you one of my bags and you can judge my work if you want but the seeing that I only have 30% of my vision I guess it’s as good as it can be so tell your mom I said hi and I wish we could be together sometime. It would be wonderful and my best to you and your family. God bless you all. 1:06:00 😊😊😊😊 I do have that addiction for fabric my goodness I still keep buying it and I won’t live long enough to use all of it so I guess that is an addiction. Thank you😊😊😊😊
