Four DIY Fabric Covers for Composition Notebooks

I was ordered by the Craft Muse, who lives in the spare bedroom aka as the craft hoarding room, to start clearing a path, through the fabric stash.

She said if I don't actually start making stuff from my fabric stash, that there's going to be trouble.

Last time she said that to me, I didn't listen and thought that she was making a joke.

But is was no joke when....

She waved her wand and a truck from a charity donation organization appeared in front of the house.  Yikes!!!   The guy was getting out to ring the door bell.

I moved fast and grabbed an armful of fabric and ran!!!!

I ran right to the cutting table and started to cut fabric to make stuff, before I had to make the cut for the donation truck.

So the below are pictures of saved fabric...I made some covers for composition notebooks. I know some kids who will love them.

 Geesh, the Craft Muse has a short temper.  But at least she DOES give me a warning....

The picture on the left is the front of the cover and the picture on the right is the inside pocket.

Ten Handmade Fabric Composition Notebook Covers

I've been AWOL for a while from posting, because of LIFE things and included with that is LAZY things.

However, I was not LAZY about making stuff. (Ok, tell that to the Craft Muse who lives in the spare bedroom )

Sew er So, below are pix of fabric book covers that I made.

For all of the pictures, the right pix is the front cover and the left pix is the inside pocket.  The pocket pix may also show the divider ribbon.  For all of the covers, I sew in a ribbon divider. 


Butterflies on green glittery fabric. I even found some glittered butterfly buttons.



















A Native American horse themed fabric, that I popped with Native American themed ribbon trim. 


















 This mermaid themed fabric that has glittered scales. I centered one of the three mermaids and made a cover with each. I used a blue sparkly button found in my button treasure box. ( it's location is secret because it contains a treasure trove of discontinued buttons that are priceless- lol!) 





















I bought this snowy owl themed fabric from Spoonflower.com. 

















 Continuing with an owl theme, the below are cutesy owls on solid periwinkle. 

















Rabbits,  they breed like... This fabric has lots of rabbit breeds. I bought the fabric from Spoonflower.com



















And now for something completely different! Carousel Unicorns.
