For Christmas gifts, I made several of these journal covers . They were fun and easy, and I loved working out the color combinations and scraps to use for each one. I vowed to make myself one, as well, but of course that didn't get done during the Christmas season. Nor directly after that, either.
I made a few modifications to the original design, and I also took a shortcut. I didn't have the time to make the patchwork fabric strip, so I simply found an interesting print scrap and used that instead.
As for modifications, I wanted an inside pocket to hold my planner, as well as a little pocket to hold a pen. I can also tuck my Kobo e-reader in behind the planner:
To add more decorative detail, I tried out some of the fancy stitches on my sewing machine:
I'm very pleased with the finished product and carry it everywhere. :)
