Fabric Covered Journals

I came across Teesha Moores you tube site and watched her video of her making fabric journals, I was inspired and went about making my own.  This is one of my art journals that I put all my ideas for bigger work...
I have used a variety of material, African waxed fabric, buttons, crochet, jeans pocket - (to keep my pens in on the go), quilting, sewing by hand and machine - it was quite therapeutic to make...

 I am looking forward to doing some more!

  1. What a fun idea, I kinda want to squish your journal. I really like the pocket to keep your pens in.

  2. That's a neat little concept. I'll have to try and make me one to see how it comes out :)
