Travellers Notebook Standard Size 

I've seen so many crafters, when doing a pamphlet stitch, faffing with measurements. The fact you just stab in the middle and a bit in from top/bottom, just reassures me (as a newer crafter) that precision isn't always the most important thing. Loving your videos Ceri, keep em coming, I'll catch up when my arm is properly mended.

You're such a patient teacher Ceri. It's so relaxing watching one of your tutorials ❤

god bless you , Your way of speaking and process explaining simply warms my heart , Thank you ,your video makes me believe that i am capable of creating my own Travelers Journal Inlays , Thank you🤗

There’s something incredibly genuine and warm about you. I was actually looking up how to set up a “travelers journal” so happy this showed up in recommendations. Cant wait to start 2024 off with doing something like this on my own.

You are the BEST at tutorials!!!!!!

I love someone who works in inches…I love inches….I love your tutorials also…thanks for sharing your ideas 😊

I was looking online for refills for my travelers notebook and saw this video! I'll be making my own tomorrow.Thank you

Hi Ceri, Just wanted to thank you for giving me the courage to try, for the first time, sewing in a signature. I don't know why but I have always been nervous of trying this technique but your video on making travelers notebooks inspired me and wow when I followed your instructions it worked like a dream.

Ceri, i just think this tutorial is fantastic. thank you.

Your instructions are very clear and helpful

I really need to make one for my husband. He is quite the list maker! His birthday is coming up on the 2nd of June!!! YIKES!!! Thank you so much luv! ♥️🙏🥀

This is the best description I have ever seen on how to create these TN type inserts. You have a great voice and are a real joy to listen to. Thanks for all the tips.

I like that size…I’m going to make these as I take notes everywhere! Thanks for sharing. 🦋

Thank you for your RU-vid channel.

All your tutorials are such a treat Ceri. I find your instructions make everything look so easily doable. I find myself revisiting them again. Much appreciated 🙏 ☺

I LOVE THAT YOUR BLACK LEATHER FOLDER IS MADE FROM A COUCH YOU CUT UP!!!!! I am so lucky to have you as a RU-vid art prof. Seriously… among other things you have taught me is to take advantage of a square ruler. Thank you so much for sharing 💕💕💕💕💕

Thanks living in New Zealand it's difficult to get traveller's notebooks so I'm so glad I found your tutorials 😊

Excellent tutorial! Thank you!

Just stumbled upon this video -- thank you!! I think you are one of the best teachers I've seen here on RU-vid. Just fabulous. I'm so excited to get going with my DIY Trav notebooks for 2024!!! So appreciate all the time and thought and effort you invested here and look forward to watching more of your videos. Thank you!!!!!

This is an awesome tutorial. You are an excellent teacher, this was very easy to follow and understand. I will be referring back to this when I'm ready to make a notebook. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️

Watching this video as I have a beautiful Chic Sparrow Scout leather cover in the Wide size, I'm going to use it as my Travel Journal, I plan on making my own Junk Journal style inserts to document our various trips in our Motorhome Esme. As a Journal maker, I'm always interested to see how other Journal makers make their journals and I recently found your channel and subscribed, so I'm working my way through your videos. Love you simple easy to watch videos, plus you really explain how and why your doing each step in the process. I'm looking forward to picking up and using a great many of your tips and tricks.

I really like how you have the strings on the inside instead of the outside I've never seen anyone put it on the inside. I'm going to try that thank you 😊.

Fantastic! What a great Tutorial.

Thanks! Your videos are relaxing!

Love them!!!..Can decorate to suite yourself / as to what you will use them for!!! Small enough to not get so overwhelmed, as w/ a lg journal...Have been in a journal slump as of late... been a yr since I’ve made one... All the ones I’ve made are very personal and very much for the people I’ve made them for... Maybe this would get me back in the saddle so to speak!!! Thanks so much!!! Love the comment abt bleeding on the stage... paper! You can take the man off the stage.. but can’t take the stage out of the man!!! Hope that makes sense!!! 😻👩🏻‍🦰💖

Oh dear … I think I’ve become addicted to making these fun size notebooks. I can’t seem to stop making g them. Thinking they will make great little gifts. Thanks for sharing this idea!!!

I watched this video and started and stopped it as I made my own I am in love with these. I love your tutorials, easy to listen to and very explicit details. Thank you

Thank you for your clear instructions. I appreciate your enthusiasm and passion for all the thing you cover in your videos. You always make me feel like I’m learning and more confident that I can try this and be successful. Thank you sharing your beautiful works of art.

Thank you for sharing? I will be using this idea. Blessings! 😊

That was fabulous!! Super quick!! I love your explanations. As always, thanks for sharing. ❤️

Thank you so much for a comprehensive explanation! I live in the southwest corner of mainland British Columbia, Canada. With this video of yours, and the video Gayle did about the simple notebook for her hubby, I think I can actually make one of these.

You made it look so easy!! Thank you! I honestly could listen to speak about all day. Your accent is lovely, but also your tone is so very nice. Your transparency, your knowledge and talent are very appreciated. I am so thankful for your friendship with Gayle A , she introduced me to you and your channel. Blessings CERi the crafter.😊

Ceri, this tutorial is golden. Your instructions and tips are very much appreciated. I sing in a large chorus and have rehearsal and performance dates to track. While cell phones are helpful, there are notations, special sectional info, etc. I, too, need to write it all down or will be forgotten. My singer’s notebook has pockets, so once I make mine, that is where it will live. Thank you! 🌻🌻🌻

What a lovely tutorial! I'll definitely be trying that stitching method. I usually use staples to avoid having to punch several holes into the booklets, but with just 3 it looks very simple!

Thank you Ceri for another terrific tutorial. I'm excited to make up some of these. I might make some up to gift to family members too. These will be so handy to have, as I'm a list person. :)

Thank you your instructions were great.❤️🇨🇦

Yes enjoyed the video indeed

Thank you. I most certainly enjoyed this video. What a wonderful little gift idea. Great stocking stuffers for Christmas. Thank you for sharing

Thank you so much. Your instructions are so clear. I’ve completed one this morning. Lovely!

As always your instructions were clear and easily understood. Great little journals to know how to construct when needed.!!

Thanks Ceri! That was a good and quick tutorial! TFS!

Really helpful and easy to understand tutorial. Thanks so much!

Hi again Cerise’s. I really liked your traveler’s notebook & LOVED meeting Biscuit. He’s adorable!

Your random instructions are wonderful and just love watching you work. Also very lovely gel prints Big Hugs from P&M

You are AMAZING! All of your tutorials are fantastic! Thank you!

that metal square is genius! can't say I've ever seen it being used with paper crafting but I think I I have one and can't wait to use it...And after seeing you use it I ordered me a set of Tim Holtz flat brushes and I LOVE them so much! I highly recommend this product the soft flat bristles fan out so perfect so the coverage is consistent and is SO gentle for decoupage best of all is how it feels in my hand- thank you for this and all your content ❤️

Nice notepads a great size too for on the go

Great tutorial! Loved it! Very helpful! Thank you! 😊🌸😊

Just amazing! Great instructions; easy and creative ideas! I loved it! Thank you, Ceri!

This is my favorite size of notebook to use, Ceri. I tried to buy some new Dyalog books by Dianne Reavely, and they're no longer available on Amazon. I love the black one and the one she makes with her heavier weight paper like in the Dylusions journals. I ordered something different from Amazon, but I like paper that lets me do a lot of water. We'll see. I do always have to remake the commercial ones to convert them to two signatures so I can open it flat. Love this tutorial. Good basic info. Happy new year. Look for the New Year's Streamathon at Paintgirlee's channel. Lots of hoppy streams throughout all of New Years Eve and till 6 p.m. eastern on Sunday. Join in the chat. You could be one of the presenters next year if you like it.

I just discovered your videos and am enjoying them tremendously. Thanks for your clear and useful instructions!

Luv this tutorial! Simple and smart tips. Thank you so much for your excellent instruction and explanations. Sincerely appreciate

Yes you have been very clear with the directions and I enjoyed this tutorial as always 🙂

Great tutorial!

Thank you Ceri for the inspiration. I’ve never made a TN but I sure will now Thanks so much, Hugs. Maggie ❤️🤗🇨🇦❤️

Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing💕

Ceri: a very good tutorial. Those note books seem very easy to make. And I like the way they are housed in that leather journal. Carol from California

Love it! Thank you for sharing!

You were very quick, did you do a reef knot or a granny knot when tying off your pamphlet stitch? Very few Journal makers on RU-vid explain the importance of the reef knot. Right over left then left over right. If you do the knots the same way(granny knot) they can undo more easily. Believe it or not the same applies to tying bows on shoelaces. Kids whose shoes come undone easily tend to do a granny. Thanks for the video.

🌷🌷🌷wonderful, thank you

Excellent tutorial Ceri! The cover you make is EXQUISITE!! 🐞✌️🕉️

Lovely clear instructions. I make a lot of these in 6 x 4 size, decorate them and package them for gifts. They are very popular. And like you i scour shops for paper to use. Accounting books are good too, especially if wanting to keep a record of spending. I have one in my handbag when we travel, (or used to travel). One thing I have done is made up a word document with just lines on, for the exact size, I.e travellers notebook or 6 x 4. Then I just print them out on copy paper and use them. You can customise these to suit your needs. Thank you Ceri. From a Kiwi Griffiths in New Zealand

What a fantastic tutorial. Thank you so much. You’re the best!!

Thank you for the clarity of the process....fun fun!

Love all of your tutorials. You give great instructions When and if will you be doing a tutorial on the leather cover. I have tons of faux leather that I would love to use.

So very nice & clear. Thanks Ceri!

Another wonderful tutorial and a great idea. Thank you Ceri

Great tips, thanks ❣️

So easy to make and I love using them. I also use the passport size. Never thought of making them out of those lined school notebooks and I never would have thought about the staples damaging the cord! 🤔 Thanks for the tips, Ceri! 😊

Thank you for another great tutorial. The ruler you used to trim the pages looks like one I need!

Very interesting…. I find your instruction very clear!

Fab tutorial. Would love to see your outside covet/holder made.

Love your artistic nature. I went to you website and hope to see you unclude recommendations for products. Thank you for sharing your talent.

Thanks so much!

Look so fun to make & it's look so pretty, please do a video of making that cover maid from sofa leather 🥺 because, I also have a old lather jack that I can use it too😊

I love that

Hi Ceri, I remember seeing you gluing pages together, but don’t remember the video. I’ve started a travel journal and debated about gluing pages .

I've never been interested in making these but...🙂, I have a cover now that might just be perfect to use. 😁 TFS Hope you have a great day. 🌞

❤love this . Ceri did you ever do a tutorial on how to create a vinyl/card cover with elastics to contain your travellers notebooks ? Would love to see what you come up with .thankyou so much

When punching the holes, I open the book that I’m using (phone book) and place the booklet in the valley of the book. Makes punching easier as you aren’t punching the holes into a bunch of backing papers.

Great tutorial, direct, to the point, and easy to understand and follow. Any plans to doing a tutorial for the faux/leather cover? Also, your compact guillotine paper cutter, I would love to purchase one. Any buying information you can share would be appreciated. Thank you.

I love you Cari you seem to be so sweet I'm from Martinsville Virginia that's in America you calm me down I am very high strung so I am so glad I found you have a good night or day it's <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="620">10:20</a>pm here so have a good one

Thank you Ceri do you have a video on making a cover.

Ceri, I noticed when you open up your daily planner you had in there a little thing with your tools (pens). Would you mind showing in a short clip what you carry with your journal? TY. 🙋🏻‍♀️💕

Thanks for the tutorial. Being a tailor for a living, I would love to know how yo made that TN cover. I couldn’t get a close up of it. It’s great! I’ve got some leather… I need to start thinking about that👍♥️

another great video with detailed instructions….curious; in the beginning when showing us one of the journals' you mentioned a "writing board", I"m very interested in that, did you make one?

Do you have a tutorial on making a cover for these. I think these are fabulous.

So easy to make. I love the way you can switch in and out the notebooks according to what you want. Just a question - the spine on the main cover which holds the elastic, is that strengthened in any way?

I know this is an older video. But as you were cutting off the excess width of the pages, i was thinking you could NOT cut the cover. And then score and fold the cover in, glue the top and bottom edge. Leaving you with a little pocket on the front and back covers. Only if you want that sort of thing.

Thank you! What is a glue book love?

Oh, forgot to ask, when you print out digitalis for a journal what weight (gsm) do you use? Thanks, Janara

That was quick and painless...lol

Why do you call a page a signature?

The actual size doesn't matter. At.all. Stop complicating with all the numbers. ❤️
