I am excited to try the notebook covers. i’ve tried another pattern before but really need to “tweek” the pattern.

these fat quarter projects are fantastic… i love them all… and have tried this journal cover and it is excellent.. so clear and easy to follow… thankyou so much for taking the trouble to share with us all…
Thank you so much for these! I accidentally stumbled to this page through a sea of links. I wanna get me some fat quarters and get cracking!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing these journal ideas/tutorials. My teenage daughter is a writer and I can’t wait to make a handful for her! She collects journals, too! This is great…thank you.
I was looking at all the notebook tutorial links and then found one that went to a fabric basket that was too cute! I would love to make one with some fat quarters!
My long list of “Must make” items is growing faster than I can keep up w/ thanks to your daily projects! Thanks! (I think.)
How clever! These would make great gifts too. Love them!
I need to make one of these…soon!
Thanks for continuing to share such cute ideas.
I’m really going to miss fat quarter month when it’s over.
Thanks for all the fun FQ projects. I’ve saved them all in my reader, and they’ll come in handy for lazy Sundays! happy sewing!
That fabric is beautiful. Loved every sugestion during this month.
i love the bloom website and the tutorial for the journal cover- i need to do more of these projects so i can gather some nice scraps!
I will save this post for gift-giving ideas. Thanks!
I love the combination of screen printing and sewing. The bird notebook cover looks adorable.
Green is exactly what I’m working on right now; would love to qdd toit, courtesy of SMS’s generosity! Good luck to everyone.
I am doing a “Pay it forward” giveaway if anyone is interested.
what a cute idea, I love the cover of the journal!
Yikes, what great tutorials. Adore the journals.
the mobiles were great. have enjoyed this entire month on FQs.
really pretty!
Thank you for all the FQ projects. Love the journal.
This has been a great month of beautiful projects. The real cure for the winter blues!
I love making personalized notebooks & covers – more inspiration! Hourrah!
A great idea. I really need to try covering some notebooks with lovely fabric.
I’m loving all the FQ projects! I’m a FQ addict… I keep buying them.. but never have enough fabric to make anything…. so this has really given me the opportunity to explore what I can do with them.
Very cool. Love all the ideas for using Fat Quarters. Just need to actually DO IT!
just this very night i made myself a composition notebook cover from this tutorial….
http://www.joyshope.com/2008/08/you-can-sew-this-i-promise.html
it was fun and easy and my notebook looks so so much better now
What a beautiful notekbook cover!
I love it as a passport cover!
I’m so sad that there’s only 1 more day of the FQ project month! This has been the best month ever in my opinion on Sew Mama Sew – I’m sad to see it end!
What a beautiful cover for that journal!
Earlier today I pulled out my plain cheap planner and thought to myself that I really needed to make a cover for this. Lo and Behold, I get on the blog today and the Fat Quarter project is exactly what I needed. I love this place.
Beautiful notebook cover.
Oh, I love the design! I’m crazy for birds!
What a dangerous project… I already can’t resist a journal, but you add a cute fabric cover and I’m a goner! Very cute! And a great gift idea!
beautiful!
What a great way to use a FQ!
Covering journals whether large, medium or purse size will certainly help use up my fat quarter stash. Love these ideas today! Thanks!!!
Ooh, lovely. I’m excited about this project!
Fantastic idea! I’ve had a few in my day, but maybe its time to make my own!
ughhh why was it I couldn’t find any of these back in Oct? I’ve bookmarked these…
That cover is adorable!
I never thought of covering my passport! hmmmm
I love using my scraps of fabric to make book and journal covers!
I’m just loving these ideas for fat quarters! Thanks!
As a sewing beginner, I LOVE these FQ projects, I’m having so much fun learning new things!
There’s a great passport sleeve tutorial here:

Cheers,

That is so pretty! Love the birdie
That is lovely. Perfect for all the journals I have bought but never get around to actually writing in.
Yet another awesome idea for fat quarters. Really like Summerville’s silk screened fabric.. wow!
Lovely idea and the results. Thank you for the links to these tutorials.
I love these! They will make great gifts!
I love these journals – I’m going to try one this weekend. I’m thinking about a garden journal.

I’ve been looking forward to coming to this website each day to see which project you’re featuring. There’s been so many great ideas for fat quarters this month. I just love it!
What a great idea…I have a few fat quarters that I just wasn’t sure what to do with.
I love the journal cover.
Adorable book cover! Thanks so much for the idea!
As a beginning sewer, this site is invaluable and the fat quarter projects are great! Not only are they simple for me to follow, but they get my brain juices flowing for what I can do on my own…free of just patterns. I think as a beginner the hardest thing to do is JUST SEW! The patterns are never exactly what I want and simple projects like today really give me the confidence to start designing on my own!
I did a masculine version of this for my brother for Christmas and it was a hit!
I am just starting to fall in love with fat quarters and it has been so great all the projects you have been listing! Thanks.
Wow that journal cover with the screenprinting is beautiful! Have I mentioned how much I love fat quarter month? These projects are great.
Great idea. Love the idea of covering the journal.
i’m so inspired, wanting to have more time to be sewing away…
Great ideas, and who can have too many fat quarters? The journal coverse a great gift idea, and green just happens to be my favorite color!
Does fat quarter month really have to end?
I really love this idea. I can’t wait to try it out.
I love these fat quarter tutes! I had so much fun with the swap. I think we should do another one soon!
I just made a “slip-cover” for an uuuugly pocket-calendar yesterday! Here’s the link:
http://sweetpot8o.blogspot.com/2009/02/buy-nothing.html
I made one of these notebook covers at Christmas and then used the rest of the fat quarter to make a zippered pouch!
I can’t wait to make a new cover!
Now I can combine two of my favorite things in the world: books and fabric! Brilliant!
thanks soo much. have been looking for and making fabric book covers for the kids bibles at church lately. thanks again
Thanks for the inspiration – I need a wuick birthday present for a fellow student and this is just perfect!
I really love that last turtorial…it looks easy and cute. I may have to whip one of these up for my next prayer journal!
LOVE that little freezer paper stenciled bird. I must do that.
I am such a sucker for new, fresh, pretty, clean notebooks. I want to make some of these covers just so I can buy some
I love the way the bird looks like it’s sitting on a wire!
Oh, that is pretty.
You have to love the bird in a garden theme! So cute.
Great project!
Here’s another tutorial for a fabric covered notebook http://craftapple.wordpress.com/2006/09/17/patchwork-notebook-cover-tutorial/
Very cute! I love the screenprinting
These are so cute! I’ve been meaning to make some for all of my scrapbooks but have yet to get around to it. Thanks for the inspiration!

I really love these book covers. They are so sweet and will be easy to do.
These would make such great gifts. The stencils and screen printing are really charming!
Love these. I actually posted a paperback book cover I made early this morning. I used material I received from the swap. What great timing! What is left I can use for a passport.
Books books books… Uhh, I love books…!
Very nice. These will come in handy for my sis. As always, Thanks!
great for gifts! Thanks for the tutorial.
I’ve been wanting to make passport covers for a while. Maybe seeing these covers will inspire me to finally do it!
All are lovely. I especially like the linen and patchwork journal cover. Its funny that this is the topic for today’s post because I just finished making a Bible cover that was made in a similar way.
Must make one today!
excellent ideas!
Love the little bird on the cover above. Will have to check her shop.
This is an adorable idea. I love all the links, too. Such inspiration!
My passport would “love” a cover…
these are adorable! what a great idea, i love journals and notebooks, and didn’t think to cover my own. another day, another project.
I think these are so neat because you can make them so personal!
Green is my favorite color
While it wouldn’t flesh out my stash much, I would never say no to it.
I love notebook covers. Thanks.
THank you so much! I have been wanting to learn how to make these as it seems like they would make great gifts. I will definitely have to check out your links to tutorials.
I would love to win some FQs!
Her birds are so cute!
This is a beautiful project!!! So whimsical yet simple. Love it!
That’s so cute! I love it! I wish all my books were the same size so i could always look at a cute cover like this!
Super cute
Cute! I’m be traveling a lot this year and could use a cute passport cover.
Some great looking tutorials here! I’ve bookmarked a few to go check out better, thanks!
What a clever idea. I’ve taken some book-binding classes, and this is certainly an easier way to personalize notebooks. Thanks!
What is that fabric in primary colours?! Must go look to see if I can find it…!
Birdies are so adorable! Thanks for sharing. I need to cover an organizer binder I tote around with me. It’s a horrid looking constant companion.
what a neat idea and can really coridnate a lot!
That notebook cover is just too cute!
Love them! Very pretty and thanks for sharing!
Cute. Maybe I should make my own journals since I write so many of them.
very cute!
I have just been loving these fat quarter projects…thanks so much for sharing them!
