Hi Carol! I so much enjoyed watching this video. I still love hearing fabric being torn. I don’t think I will ever get tired of hearing that sound. I so much love your fabric journals. I would really like to see what you do with them. And great job on that blanket stitch! You go girl!!! 😀❤️😀

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Thank you Susan, ah I just hoard them lol. It’s the process of stitching I enjoy never know what to do with them when they’re done 😁❤️

[@tricialinden]

My goodness, you've mastered that blanket stitch....... I'm so happy. 🙂🙂🙂

[@RecraftedByCarol]

I do believe I have 😂 thanks for the tip, on to the next stitch 💖

[@teresabrown836]

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Aww Teresa thank you ❤ I have received your package, it did make me smile 😀 look out for next Wednesdays video ! hugs back to you my friend xx

[@sharongriffin4025]

Please show your progress as you go! I really enjoy watching you !

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Will do!! Just follow the cards at the end of the videos… I have taken a break from this book to do a wall hanging but I will be finishing it and all the pages 😁

[@suebrown3194]

By all means, share the creation of at least some of the pages in these books. Watching you stitch gets me motivated to do my own stitching. And thanks to you and Trish for the tutorial on starting the blanket stitch!

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Thank you 😊 I am happy to hear you are motivated to stitch, Tricia told me and it still took me a while to figure it out lol, I’m on to bullion knots next they are so tricky for me !

[@suebrown3194]

@@RecraftedByCarol I tried bullion knots last year or so. Not for me! A different needle might help, but I found them too fiddly for my taste. Good luck!

[@caroltanzi29]

Carol: yes, I would be interested in seeing the progress of these little books. I love the idea of taking it with you to work on. Just so much fun. Carol from California

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Hi Carol they are just that so much fun 😊 thank you for the feedback I will do a few progress videos as I stitch x

[@SSandtheRVCats]

The books turned out nicely. I've been thinking of making a fabric book. Thank you for the tutorial.

[@RecraftedByCarol]

You are so welcome Sharon, you can easily make this, you only need to know straight stitches 😁

[@joannepeyton1654]

Hi Carol: I love making needle books! Yours are turning out so cute. Last one I made was 2 3/4” x 2 3/4” when folded. I’m working on a bigger one, more like yours. This way I can make pockets and add my little scissors, needle threaders, etc. Will stay tuned for your next post. Thank you for sharing. 💜😎🇺🇸

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Oh that’s sounds so cute and tiny 😊 i really enjoy working in the 4” square books they just fit in your hand so nicely. Thanks for watching ❤

[@CreatingwithJovi]

I love your motto...It could go terribly wrong....so let's give it a go!!! LOL...perfect! Your fabric books are So cute!!!!

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Haha I know right 😊 I do seem to have quite a few happy accidents 😂

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Hi Rhonda oh I’m sure you’ll get round to it one day ! I bet you’re itching to get back in your craft room lol

[@Marysharp6366]

I never used to like to do blanket stitch but when I did a applique patchwork quilt I really got to like doing it. Still enjoying your videos. I liked when you were doing the fly stitch.🤗🤗

[@RecraftedByCarol]

That is awesome! thank you for watching Mary 😊 yes I loved doing the fly stitch will be incorporating that into my projects for sure 💖

[@Marysharp6366]

Looking forward to see the fly stitch in your next project. Just to let you know I am from Yorkshire but now living in New Zealand.🤗🤗

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Lucky you getting away from Britain lol 🤗

[@normajefferson6683]

Thank you

[@RecraftedByCarol]

You're welcome

[@CozyHomePaperstudio]

That is so lovely 💞 I've not made a fabric one yet but that looks great, might have to try that in the future 🙂

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Thank you ! you should have a go they’re really easy and you can adapt them to whatever size you like and also how many pages you put in 😁

[@Judyspaperplay]

Just started watching you. Thanks for teaching. Im new at making fabrics books and I'm wondering how easy is it to decorate your pages first and then sew them in?

[@RecraftedByCarol]

Welcome Judy 💖 that’s the way I do it, the ‘book pages ‘are a base, I do have videos showing how I add pages to my bases 😁

[@cleot151]

Please show us what you do on the pages. Do you decorate the cover?

[@RecraftedByCarol]

I will be showing the pages and decorating the cover 💕

[@sherryvanderpool8644]

I have never made a cloth journal

[@RecraftedByCarol]

I think you would be able to make one of these easily Sherry, just try a mini one 😀
