Babushka notebook covers

Another two notebook covers - this time it was much quicker, less painful (I am getting used to sewing with pins...) but still so much fun!



This lovely babushka fabric was asking to be cut in horizontal stripes. I found four solid colours that really bring up the cheerful tones:



 but I decided to go with two colour schemes: sweet - with pink and orange,




 and cool - with green and blue.



Next I am thinking yellow and green... or maybe just red... Any ideas?

Bird of a feather notebook cover

The moment I saw this birdie fabric I was in love.



I was trying to resist temptation but it was futile. When it finally arrived in post I pushed everything else aside, and I knew I won't be able to focus before I change it into... into...Ha! Notebook cover!


Few hours of cutting, pinning,sewing, colour matching and ironing it was done.



It was such a fun to make, these birds were tweeting and singing to me all the way :D
And I am really pleased with the result. I think it looks good from every angle.



Well, may be the first but it definitely won't be the last cover I'll make. I have a whole line of them already planned, and off course I am happy to take any custom orders.
