I cut my string off my CS hummingbird cover and suddenly I love it. I didn’t like that TN cover when I first got it then thought what would happen if I cut the string and kept the wrap string to keep it close and works well for me. Funny how little changes make us happy and like how it feels. 😄
Love the video! I’m definitely trying that setup for my Weeks next year. And I love the wallet setup. It’s so nice to have wallet peace. I carry a nano for my “extra” wallet, or all of the cards I don’t use often, and have a wallet I carry in my pocket for the normal high usage cards. I hope the nano works for a slimmer wallet. Mine has to fit in my pocket or I’ll never remember it. I don’t carry a bag or purse everywhere. I just started carrying a pocket with a journal insert and a notes insert. I am trying to journal more often and I also want a place to make book and video notes. I can never find them when I need them and never look at them if they are digital. I also love the quiver and pocket for the little ones. Such a special treat to share your passion! And a multipen is the coolest. I loved them when I was younger and still do. Thanks for the update! Awesome setup.
I never look at my notes when they are digital either!😂 I just LOVE having a journal with me when I’m on the go. It’s completely different from my bigger written journal I usually keep at home. I noticed I write differently in there! And to be honest, I’m trying to downsize my wallet because I want to make space for adding an A6 notebook for on the go journaling (currently doing it in my hobo weeks but it’ll be too small for next year). 🙈
Sarah Martinez Just thinking about the possibilities makes my head spin. My Grandpa always asked me if I brought the kitchen sink with me this time! 😹 My bag is always full, and I love it that way but my back doesn’t. Best of luck with the exploration!
I, too, have been trying to figure ot how to include the clear plastic COC, but it never occurred to me to put the elastic between the COC and the spine of the Weeks! What a great idea. I may try putting both strings through that way because I don't intend to add any more inserts, unless I end up needing the thin Almost Day notepads I got in case it turns out I should have bought a Mega!
Since the end of summer I’ve been carrying my weeks in a Gillio Appunto in addition to a regular wallet. Over the past few years I’ve downsized what I carry everyday. Even though it is a tote bag, I don’t fill it but like having the extra space ‘just in case.’ At the start of the new year, I plan to add an A6 techo to my lineup and may carry that around sometimes in addition to the weeks. I haven’t been carrying much for my kids in awhile since they are 11 and 12. Love your mavericks😊
The majority of changes I make are to downsize as well! I mainly try to downsize when I want to add something else to my EDC-trying to balance things out😆. I’m considering adding an A6 notebook for the new year so I’m playing with a nano for a wallet. Hopefully I love it as much as my pocket setup!
Loved your video :-). Right now I'm carrying an A5 cousin AVEC. Next year it will be the full year. It's in a SOJOURNER folio. I also have two inserts I made out of tomoe river paper (personal size) One of them is for documenting my day and another one is a gluebook insert. My biggest and heaviest will be my cousin. So taking them all with me in my purse isn't bad. I'm probably going to put a small travel bag together that has some watercolor and other things to take also.
Bravo on the A5! If I didn’t have to carry so much extra stuff for my kids right now, I’d probably add more/bigger notebooks😂. I love your travel bag idea!
Hi Sarah, Thank you for sharing your TN and setup. I love your 'to the point' discussions and ideas. I've been on the fence about the Maverick and love the strikes on the smaller one. I have a CS Creme Wide for about a year now but its too much for an EDC. Thank you for the inspiration X
I don’t prefer to have more than 4 strings so I wouldn’t go for a plus. It’s just my personal preference! Especially as a wallet, I want to have the smallest setup I can manage so I’m not fumbling through too many inserts to find something. I tend to hold my pocket while I’m shopping and a thicker TN would be too cumbersome for me.
Beautiful tns. I tried making my personal classic Maverick my EDC, but my goodness it was too heavy. So now I have a cute nano for my wallet with a 12 card insert, and a classic MD Burgundy pocket for on the go lists, an insert for notes or bored journaling, and an insert with info I may need, i.e. store hours, book series info, ingredients I may need, sizes, etc. I would like to carry my Weeks, but I put too much personal info to comfortably carry around. I still hope you will do a lettering video. Ok, take care!
Thank you! Maverick is definitely one of the heaviest leathers to carry. I like how you use your pocket as an informational book, how convenient! Haha, I still haven’t forgotten about your lettering request...just trying to figure out how to go about it😄
I've been coveting a maverick weeks cover for a while now. I love the lighting strikes but I'm just not sure if the thickness is for me! Ive had 2 pemberley tn covers and have loved them dearly! My edc (one only) is a b6 pemberley in fern. I used to carry an A5 and it was just too heavy
Pemberley is so light and pliable compared to the Maverick, but the Maverick just looks so striking! I couldn’t imagine carrying an A5, I’d definitely have to size down too!
I carry a personal Filofax Malden as a wallet/on the go planner, but have been intrigued with the TN. Wondering if I should try it, thinking of the pocket size you shared❤️
@@sarahmartinezjournals I just saw your note in the video description. I heard something similar from Becque in the FB Groups. Do you have personal experiences with Leather Quill (obviously you did receive products from them though), or was this something you heard somewhere?
@@CMLounsbury yes, I had 2 orders from them that I never received. I contacted them through email and through IG with no response. I had to file a PayPal claim and they refunded my money after ruling in my favor. It was incredibly disappointing.
Really wish I'd read all the LQ warnings...I'm a month in waiting for a "quick ship" order (USPS tracking stuck on June 2). I suspect they cancelled the shipment after tracking info was received by USPS, and after I paid $100 for 2 TN's and shipping. Read awful stories of false refunds, bounced refunds, cancelled e-sheck refunds. Destroying that company is my new hobby.
Tfs! The life inserted link doesn't work (for me.) I googled and found her etsy shop. Maybe you could add that link? Again tfs, I love your videos, TN and hobonichi ftw!

I’m so glad the video was helpful! Stringing through the CoC made my setup perfection to me. I hope it works for you too!

Thanks for your comments, Cynthia! I love the wides I have but you’re right, they are too big for me to carry regularly!
Thank you for the reply Sarah. Question: if you had to do the pocket again, would you consider the pocket plus over the regular pocket? TIA xo

The pocket is a great size to try! It’s less expensive than most of the other sizes and it’s so portable😊
I had to comment 😀i was in a pocket Malden for 6 years and just loved in to my TN passport size and i love it❤️
Thank you for making this Sarah🙏
Looking good!
That wallet insert is making me NEED to have that size immediately. Why must you do this to me!!🤦♀️😂😘
Hahaha😂. Sorry! There are SO many different types of wallet inserts. It’s so easy to get exactly what you want!
Every time I watch your videos I have to step away from the computer so as not to order a Maverick! They're beautiful!
😂😂 the Mavericks ALWAYS tempt me. I so get it!
Yes, I do believe I will try it, Maverick of course. I’ll need to get inserts to use as a wallet.
There are so many great wallet inserts available from lots of different shops on Etsy! You’re going to have fun shopping 😊
Great video! I recently started making these TN. Chic Sparrow has such great notebooks.
I applaud you for making them! I can only imagine how much craftsmanship goes into the process!
How does Leather Quill's Brady leather compare to Maverick?
I’ve never had the Brady leather but I hear it’s the same as Maverick!

I absolutely LIVE for gorgeous brown leathers, too.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
What size is the big traveler note book?
It’s a Weekly Calendar Cover from Chic Sparrow. It’s sized to fit the Hobonichi Weeks Planner👍🏼.

You’re right, Lisa! I totally forgot she closed her website and moved everything to Etsy, hopefully the link works now! Thanks for the catch❤️
That leather is GORGEOUS! 😍 love your channel, I just subscribed :)
Thank you, Francesca!!❤️
Beautiful leather!!!!!
Thank you, Pamela!!
I love my Mavericks!
I'm obsessed with them!!
Thank you!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching❤️
Yay, Maverick all the way!
