For a Friend

One of my local friends was having some health issues that could be life threatening. A group of us got together and did various things to cheer that friend.  One thing that I did was to make her a covered notebook, because I know she will use it.  I asked for her favorite colors and was told Blue and Green. 

I also knew that she loves hand dyed fabrics.  So I dove into my stash of hand dyed fabrics and chose a selection of blues and greens to make the cover.  

I love the small pop of red on the front of this one. 

And here it is opened so you can see front and back.

I think it came out beautifully. I used a variegated green thread for the quilting. 

You may notice that there is a bit of purple on the back cover.  That end is actually a bit of leftover strip from a quilt top that I had been hanging onto. It worked nicely here. That bit and the lining are the only fabrics that are not hand dyed in this notebook cover.  The best part of these covers is that they fit a standard composition notebook. That means once it is full, you replace the inside notebook and start with a fresh notebook. 

This has been a crazy week so I have no new face to show. 

However, I am sharing "Lucy Prisma" again.

Until Next Time,
