Super cute 🥰💝💜💙💚🖤💝🤍👍

[@debbieanneEVG]

thank you so much :)

[@maxinedayhuff308]

Could you use a baby's receiving blanket between the covers to add a little more cushion?

[@debbieanneEVG]

Yes, that's a great idea! 😊

[@Canadian693]

Love this, TFS! Definitely going to make a few journals this way! Do you live in Northbay? My stepdad used to have land in Northbay, which we went to see when I was around 11 or 12 years old. Nice to meet another Canadian! 🇨🇦🇺🇦

[@debbieanneEVG]

Hi there, yes I'm in North Bay. Nice to meet you, happy crafting! ❤

[@qualityquilts7829]

Hi there, Love your journal. I am wondering at 39 seconds in, is that purchased paper with the faces? So lovely. Love the butterfly patterned fabric too. Thanks!

[@debbieanneEVG]

Quality Quilts At :39? I believe I said it's a magazine page. Thank you 😊

[@janfarabee]

Love these. I need to order some waxed thread before I can do one. What do I get? Will probably have to get it on eBay. Thanks for a great tutorial.

[@debbieanneEVG]

I also use crochet cotton, baker's twine, or embroidery floss. Whatever I have on hand at the time :)

[@labradoodledandies4697]

You can buy a little container of beeswax designed for strengthening threads. Dritz makes one. It lasts for ages.

[@Muthrtung]

I use embroidery cotton for strength & variety of colours. I get a small beeswax block/candle/sheet to roll up tigjtly, place one end of thread underneath my thumb - pressing it down into the wax (leave a bit out to grip) & pull it through. Repeat at least 5 times to thoroughly coat it all. It works well & is super easy & accessible for me from a craft shop so I don't need to bother ordering. Just another option 😊

[@creativeness68]

Hi. What if I don't have a sewing machine to sew around the edges? Can the fabri tac be good enough? Thank you 😊

[@debbieanneEVG]

Yes the FabriTac is very strong. The stitching is just an extra detail but not necessary. Happy crafting! Xo
