Let's Sew a Composition Notebook Cover with a Hidden Closure by Rosie & David Patterns

[@macaroniduck127]

Glad my sister suggested this video. Very clear tutorial. Will be making many for gifts.

[@sewgatormomm]

This is the best tutorial I have seen for making covers. Your idea to round the edges and the brilliant hidden closure are just wonderful. Thank you so much!!

[@vernajensen9698]

Hello from Alberta, Canada. Thx for the great tutorial on the composition notebook covers. I especially liked your method for closing the opening - the best method I’ve seen and I have looked at a bunch of you tube tutorials!

[@KirstyBrown-i8s]

Best video I've seen so far! Cant wait to make it! Thankyou!💖😁

[@malb.2588]

Thank you for this tutorial I’m going to give it a go for my granddaughter 👍

[@rosemaryspitzer4682]

This is perfect for any scraps. Can actually piece squares or strips for the front and back. Best video presentation I’ve seen in a long time. Thank you for making it simple

[@conniehalstead5469]

My Walmart had comp books for .50 each....got 14 and can't wait to make some of these!

[@patriciasmith3615]

This is the first time I have seen how to do a hidden closure. Many thanks Rosie, your tutorials are the best.

You are welcome and thanks for watching!

[@BrendaC-l9k]

Excellent tutorial, 1st time here. So thrilled you came across my feed❤

[@MarianneSmith62]

I've done two like this now, and I've looked at other videos of the same project, with different twists and spins, but I come back to yours because it is calm and I can follow it without getting turned around. Thank you for that!!!

[@michaelasimmons-lackner8331]

Perfect tutorial ( as always) - thank you, Rosie!

Oh wow, my husband asked me the other day to make a cover for his Bible. Your video was on time. Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing.

I am glad you like the tutorial. Thanks for watching!

I was just thinking of making one for my Bible as I am looking at it.

I need one for my Bible too! Thanks!!!

[@geovanicelletti2769]

Not only do I like the pattern but the fabrics as well! And yes, I do have. You almost lost me sf hand stitching but as you explained it can’t be seen, sew I will try this! Thanks much

[@RosiesArtStudio]

The hand stitching really is not hard. Thanks for watching!

[@sharontuch3405]

@@RosiesArtStudioI know it’s just my hands are getting crippled sew I try not to hand sew! 60 + years ago was easy, now not sew much. Thank You

[@gracekarina7186]

Such lovely covers!

[@pinkie6298]

Thank you so much, Rosie. I am definitely going to make up a few of these. The closing reminds me of the clutch wallet. I have made several of those.

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I am glad to hear you are going to make the project. Please post pics in the group when you do. Yes, the closure is the same technique as the clutch. Thanks for watching!

[@jenb9274]

You truly have the best tutorials on YT

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I thank you for your very kind comment and for watching!

[@graymaquilter9641]

Awesome project, Rosie! That will make a nice Christmas gift. I once had a nifty, new little tiny pair of embroidery scissors, I found them on the floor one day with one handle chewed nearly off! My little shadow chihuahua had found them. Lastly, I got a new rotary cutter last week and wore a bandaid on my left middle fingertip all week.. 🙃 Thanks for another awesome pattern, I love the fabric! Jonee

[@RosiesArtStudio]

These dogs get themselves into a lot of trouble, but I could never live without them…lol. Thanks for watching!

[@janeduggan651]

Very nicely done. Wonderful presentation. When hand stitching the closure, can you use a 1/4” hem tape, place it in the opening and press it firmly. It should turn and remain secure. Best wishes.

[@foreverlearningart]

Another brilliant tutorial! I have been holding off on watching this one until I finished the minimalist wallet because I knew I'd get side tracked lol! Thank you Rosie!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I am glad to hear that you want to make the book cover. Thanks for watching!

Made one today, but with interfacing on each piece it made it kinda bulky at the seems, had to trim the cover a little to fit it in, but it is super cute and I’ll be making more! Thank you!

[@klemmie]

Thanks, Rosie! Another great project and incredible tutorial! I'm a new self-taught sewist (your videos are a tremendous help!!!). I've been avoiding blind stitches but this tutorial has given me the confidence to give it a try!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I am glad you like the project. You will do fine with the hand stitching. Thanks for watching!

[@LaurieKlinkhammer]

Rosie, the hidden turning opening is fabulous! The rest of the pattern is too but that hidden opening!!!

Love the Notebook cover. Where do you get your fabric. I simply love them!!

[@eileen9961]

Great video! Do you have a link for the elastic that you use?

[@digging4roots]

Over the years, I've made quite a few covers. I have one suggestion so you don't need to leave a seam open or turn it through. Lay the outer cover on the table, face up, followed by the sleeves on each side, and then the inside lining right sides down. Make the inside lining LESS than the length of the body of the cover as it does not need to be caught in the seams and it will lay underneath the sleeves where the edges can not be seen. Sometimes I serge the edges of the inside lining that is under the sleeves. Then sew all the way around. Then just turn it right side out through the gap left behind the sleeve.

[@conniehalstead5469]

If you please, I am trying to visualize this...do you have a video of these steps? I am going to make one from the directions above, but always willing to learn!

[@RainorShine1]

A thought I would make a fabric pen holder pouch maybe with a button and slide on the elastic before u sew it in so u would have a pen holder pouch on the elastic band so you know you always have a pen and not worry about Fallin out of the loop lol

[@charomoreno27]

Mi pregunta es... Lavas las telas antes de coser?? Al ser de algodón puede encoger??

[@yolandiehooman4432]

Any idea where I can get this fabric in South Africa? Love it!

[@maryneves5474]

Another great video and pattern. Where do I find the link to the pattern?

I want to use batting and quilt mine. How do you think that would work with the 3/8 sewing line?

[@Brandi62]

i think I missed something. Why did you leave the two corners unstitched on the first side? I rewatched it and I see where it gets closed up on the ends now. I will have to make some of these!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I am glad it became clear. It is a great technique. Thanks for watching!

[@BR54niner]

Ms Rosie, could you possible add to your tutorial lists a Bible case with zipper.? 😬☺️

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I will think about it. The issue is that Bibles come in all different sizes, so I would have to think about coming up with a standard size. Thanks for watching!

@@RosiesArtStudio yes Ma’am. That’s true. I’d be tickled with a “process” and perhaps one of your handy worksheets. 😁♥️
