Step 1Gather your awesome materials!
-
Step 2Position your design on your notebook and tape it down so it’s secure
-
Step 3Using a darning needle and following the lines of your design, poke holes through the notebook cover, spacing each about 3-4mm apart…
-
Step 4…and keep going until you’ve outlined your whole design. Remember to try not to make the holes too big as they will open up when you sew.
-
Step 5Carefully peel your paper and sticky tape off, and you’re ready to begin sewing!
-
Step 6Separate your thread – you’ll want three strands for a medium-sized notebook, two for a smaller one…
-
Step 7…you can even mix thread colours if you want a mottled or multi-coloured effect.
-
Step 8Starting from the back, bring your needle through, then back again, to make your first stitch.
-
Step 9Using a backstitch, follow the lines you’ve made and connect the dots! Remember to keep your paper design close to hand so you can check you’re following the right lines.
-
Step 10…keep going, you’re nearly there!
-
Step 11….aaaaaand you’re done! Now do a happy dance and congratulate yourself on being a sewing superstar! Tres bon!
