Starting Another Notebook

It is time I get back into sewing mode.  This morning I pieced some handwoven fabric with some quilting cotton to make a pinwheel block.
It is shown sitting on top of a very similar blue fabric -although I am not sure it is exactly the same.  I will border it with this blue and then piece together the rest of the outer cover with quilting fabrics. Once quilted I will assemble it and have yet more more in my "for sale" pile.   While these are the for the Holiday Faire in November, I would certainly be more than happy to sell them before then. To some degree, I will custom design and make one on request.  I sell these with the notebook already in place although these "Marble Composition Book" notebooks are readily available in most US markets. It is easy to replace the notebook and continue to use the cover for years.  Here are some examples of covers I have made.

Each one has a pocket inside the front cover for a pen or other small items.
 The labels say "Gene Black Creations" and also have my website address on the reverse side.
