For my first fabric journal I wanted to use cutter quilt scraps for the pages, so I cut a bunch of those to fit inside the cover I made.
I then stitched the pages and the cover together in layers to see if that would work as a binding method.
It worked, but due to the bulk I couldn't put as much as I'd wanted in the journal, and ended up with eight pages.
My goal with using these fabric journals is to stitch on the pages, or mount small art textiles on them (probably both.)
I even manage to christen the inside of the back cover with a splotch of dribbled tea. Oh, well -- it's the personal touch, right?
The journal fits nicely into the box, with room to spare if I want to add more textile art or emphemera in the future.
