How to Make a Quilted Composition Notebook Cover 

I’m so glad you did. They are fun to make - a gift that is practical, personal, and creatively beautiful. Check out my website under the tutorial section - you might stumble upon something else you like 😏

@@TheQuiltRambler Thank you. I certainly will :)

Thank you - I love my @islandbatik fabrics! Glad you enjoyed the tutorial

I’m glad you like it! I have found that o really need to sew that button closure with extra thread due to the use ☺️ Jr it’s so worth it to keep everything contained. Would love to see your creations! And yes, it’s a great place for longarmers to practice! I never let a practice fabric go with out being used for something!

@@TheQuiltRambler The e-mail could not allow me to answer you so I couldn't send a photo of some of mine. For gifts I love to frame a family photo such as grandchildren or fussy cut a fabric that shows a hobby of theirs to make it very personal. They are so great to try any new technique to find out if you like it. Thanks for the tip about making the flap strong.

Janet Golay enjoy! Be sure to share your projects

The Quilt Rambler 2

i agree with the music comment

Mary Smeltzer - it is made by the Daylight Company and I highly recommend it! Please share your creations when you are finished! You can contact me across social media or my email is on the website TheQuiltRambler.com. Thanks for stopping by!

Yes, I layer the pieced top, batting, with a fabric that will not show later - so use up a scrap, muslin, or “ugly fabric” and save the “pretty” fabric for the unquilted lining!

Thank you for your kind words! I’m so glad you enjoyed making the cover with the added bonus of the ribbon 🎀

Absolutely- I was using a ribbon that didn’t need to be hemmed. Sometimes you can use pinking shears to help with fraying also. But hemming would most certainly be an option! I hope you enjoy making this!

It’s been so long ago that I don’t remember - I generally pick up new gadgets like that at the Houston International Quilt Show - so check with your local quilt shop to see if they carry something similar or can order one for you. Having an extra light is always a good thing. Glad you enjoyed the tutorial!

Not hard at all - check out this blog post for a photo of another cover that has a strap on it. thequiltrambler.com/needle_paper_scissors_zippers/10/31/2018/

@@TheQuiltRambler Thank you. I enjoyed the squirrel story! :)

Susie Hairston The lighting I use in my studio is from The Daylight Company. I have purchased mine at the Houston International Quilt Festival - ask your local quilt shop if they can special order one for you from their suppliers. I own several and highly recommend! Thanks for watching my tutorial!

@@TheQuiltRambler Is your lamp a "clamp on style?

Susie Hairston I have the clamp style at my sewing table and have multiple floor models (8 or more) that I use in my Land Locked Quilting Cruise classroom - they may be seen on my website in photos, I think, or any of the blog posts about these events. You can use the contact us form to email me if you are unable to find a supplier - I don’t normally sell them in my classroom but have made special orders for a student or two. Email me through the website if you want more info 🦋

You’re welcome- I’ve enjoyed designing this and sharing with others who enjoy handmade gifts and useful items.

Things change through the years. The pattern is still available- on the website click on the digital PDF tab and you will find it there. thequiltrambler.com/digital-pdf/

I see Ewe - I enjoyed making them - I hope you will try one!

The Quilt Rambler , I am sewing my first one, I am almost done, I had to undo the zipper, it's not as pretty as yours are, but it's the first one of many to come. Lol Thank you for your video, I have watched it at least 6 x's.

I see Ewe - a little unsewing happens to the best of us - the good news is you won’t make that mistake twice! Be encouraged - each time I made one of the covers I got a little better, made the pocket bigger or other things. They do make great gifts! Email me photos and I will feature them on my blog in a future post!

The Quilt Rambler, Will do, I am making a cover for my bible. Thanks.

I see Ewe - my friend Dianne made a cover for her Bible - it was a large thick one but we adjusted the size and she loves it!

I use zipper from By Annie - they are considered purse zippers, I’m afraid I don’t know the equivalent “size”

Absolutely- just do your own measurements of the item and adjust accordingly. A friend of mine used it for a very large, thick Bible and it came out beautifully!

A LANE-BRAIN the zippers are from ByAnnie.com they come in a rainbow of colors and the zipper pulls are interchangeable

It is from ByAnnie.com One of the best tools I have in the studio @patternsbyAnnie

Cecile Lemoine yes - we know the audio wasn’t the best. Future tutorials will be better so stay tuned. Thanks for visiting !
