IMG_7041



Step 1

Fold the felt in half and place the notebook over it.



IMG_7043



Let about 0.5 cm on both parts (left and right) and cut the extra felt.




IMG_7044



Step 2.

Sew the two parts together until you reach about 3/4 of it.



IMG_7046



Measure with the notebook if the height is OK. You should have about 2.5 cm to the notebook spire.



IMG_7047



Step 3.

Put the ribbon here …



IMG_7048



… and sew it in place.



IMG_7049



Like this.



IMG_7051



Step 4.

Continue sewing for another 3 cm then fold the felt backward…



IMG_7052



And sew the parts together. This way, the upper part will be stronger.



IMG_7053



Do the same on the other part.



IMG_7054



The Cover will look like this.



IMG_7055



Now separate the default covers of the notebook and put them between the ribbon and felt.



IMG_7056



Like this.



IMG_7057



This is our notebook 😉 Do you think we can make it cuter?



IMG_7058



Step 5.

Of course! Let’s make a bunny! Draw a head with 2 long ears and two small paws on fabric.



IMG_7059



Cut them out.



IMG_7060



Place it again on fabric and draw the outline. Cut the second bunny out.



IMG_7061

Start sewing the two parts together. Let’s start with an ear.



IMG_7063



When you arrive in this point…



IMG_7064



… prepare the filling material…



IMG_7066



… and fill the ear.



IMG_7067



Then continue to sew until you finish the ear. It is important to sew only a little bit over half, then fill it because if you sew first and then fill, you can’t reach all the corners.



IMG_7068



This is the ear finished.



IMG_7069



Continue with the other ear…



IMG_7070



… the paws, and close the head. Don’t forget to fill it when you sew.



IMG_7071



The bunny head looks like this.



IMG_7072



Step 7.

Choose a point where you want the nose to be…



IMG_7073



… and sew the bead there.



IMG_7074



Like this. (If you prefer, you can glue the bead there)



IMG_7075



We will put the bunny in the corner.



IMG_7076



Sew it in place.



IMG_7077



Like this.



IMG_7078



Add the notebook and you are almost ready.



IMG_7080



Use the paint marker to draw 2 eyes and a mouth for the bunny 😉



IMG_7081



And there you have it…the finished notebook cover…the  bunny will keep you company as you write in it…whether is a journal or a school notebook. I hope that you had a lot of fun!
