I promise this is the last notebook cover I'll share here for a while. 2019 has definitely been the year of notebook cover gifts at our house.
But this one has an even longer background story than the others. First, because I'm just in love with this fabric. Seriously, how cute is it? And then, because it's the second gift I made with it for the same person.
Remember the Hot Air Balloons Bag I shared here a year ago? I made it for one of my daughter's classmates and apparently it was a hit. When my daughter was invited again this year for the girl's birthday party, I decided to go through my stash and search for the leftovers from the bag, and luckily I had enough for a matching notebook cover.
Unlike most of the others, this time I didn't make a matching pencil case because the original bag already came with a detachable zipper purse:
I couldn't find a lining for the notebook cover that exactly matched the one in the purse, but it's close (pink polkadots, though two different shares of pink). Not that you can really see it in the pictures, because I forgot to take photos of the lining before I had gift wrapped the notebook cover.
The notebook cover closes with an elastic and a button and as with all the others, the notebook can be replaced by one of similar size once all sheets are used.
Now I promise the notebooks will be on hold for a while and I'll share something different next week!
