Work Stages:


1. First, cut out the base of the cover from a sheet of cardboard. Dimensions should be slightly larger than the block. By the way, pages for the "filling" can be made independently of paper or use a factory analogue. Binding options are easy to find on the Internet if you wish. As a result, you should consider the double page parameter plus binding.

2. Set aside the workpiece and get to the fabric. It is necessary to cut two fragments: one is 3 times smaller than the other with an increase of 2-3 cm. We sew them from the wrong side, and decorate the connection line with braid.

3. Now glue the prepared fabric to the cardboard base. We recommend that you adhere to the following order: the connection line of 2 fabrics, the binding, the vertical borders of the notebook, all the horizontal lines.

4. We connect the block with the cover. The first and last pages will serve as bookends. You just need to attach them to the inside of our base with the same hot glue.

5. Turn on the fantasy and decorate the faceless notebook for the time being. Embroidery can be framed with a rope and complemented with small decor. However, this stage involves an unlimited number of design options.
Create and enjoy the result!
