Years ago there was a popular blanket called a "crazy quilt" which was made in a similiar manner; all size pieces of fabric were top stitched just like this. It probably was actually done this way by pioneer women to make blankets using up scraps. I like the idea of using what's on hand and not throwing things away. I grew up learning to be frugal and I'm still that way.
I definitely hear you about the difficulties of motivating teens to go for a walk!- It requires sooooooooo much energy to motivate/cajole & encourage them! Back to crafting- I loved watching your cover makes. ThankU
Lol, yes they just don’t want to do they? My daughters even worse mind you 🤭, lord only knows what she’ll be like when she’s a teenager. Thank you, so pleased that you liked these x
Love these!!! If you're looking for another amazing show to watch together I have absolutely adored "call the midwife" it is my absolute favorite!! I haven't loved a show this much since Dowton Abby
Wonderful Tina. You can barely hear the banging. The blue diamond fabric looks like curtain or cushion material. Love this type of cover. Frankenpage style. Much love xxx
Thank you so much Debbie and for the feedback about the noise. Yes you’re right the blue fabric does look like cushion or curtain fabric, I really love it x
Love that you did fabric journals today... I feel you on the kitchen flooring project...my kitchen has been gutted since Nov. 3rd...and they and installing flooring in there and I am having my entryway, hallways and living room all patched, primered, and repainted to match the brand new kitchen. Complete chaos...
Thanks for this Tina! Such lovely fabrics which I am certain will inspire many wonderful journals. Can’t hear the noise from the workmen. I do sympathize with your situation. We live in a condominium which had gorgeous cork floors throughout. While a new roof was being installed there was a leak which spoiled a small portion of the kitchen floor. We had to replace the entire floor, over 1,500 square feet. What a pain! Persevere, and enjoy the new floor! Hugs and blessings, 🤗❤️🇨🇦
Oh what a nightmare Laura. One little leak causing the entire 1500 square feet of floor to be replaced! Thank you for the feedback about the noise, I was a little concerned about the banging x
I just love listening to you. I think you are absolutely adorable and I love your interaction with your baby girl. She has such a sweet voice. I have also found that making fabric journals is easier for me. I have a harder time with the paper ones. Ive also started to mass make embellishments. Seeing how you keep yours all together has helped me. Thank you so much for sharing your talents and your knowledge of journaling. The noise in the background is not bothering me at all. I do wish that I could become more comfortable with stitching
Oh thank you so much Sharon, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your kindness. I am probably the opposite and need to get more comfortable working with fabric x
Lovely journal covers Tina! Gorgeous fabrics and a great way to make several at a time! Wishing you a Successful kitchen floor redo! It is a challenge while that's going on for sure but I'm excited for you that you'll soon have your kitchen back in which to enjoy, cook and make a cup of tea! 😊 Thank you for all the videos you share~such an enjoyable time visiting with and watching you Create! ❤😊
Oh thank you so much. Yes, I can’t wait to get straight again, it’s horrible when things are in such a mess. Hopefully just another couple of days now 🤗🙃 x
Hello Tina, WOW, what an awesome idea Just love the covers, especially the blue one with the lace insets and also the medieval one. Can't wait to see how you are going to do the journals to go with them. PLEASE, PLEASE, make a complete journal for us to see using one of the awesome covers. LOVED, LOVED, this video and a series of filling the covers will be AWESOME. Hope your floor works out well and the noise was no problem, we heard very little, and anyway, that is the noise of life. Have a wonderful day with your adorable daughter and as always, Blessings and hugs. Diana
Thank you so much Diana. I have been really lucky to have been gifted such beautiful fabrics, yes isn’t that medieval one just gorgeous? Thank you for your feedback about the noise, it just couldn’t be helped really. I will see what I can come up with for some things to do with covers. Stay safe and well x
Love these. I love putting thicker fabrics on flexible surfaces, it makes such a great hand feel! You've got some very gorgeous pieces of material. Hope your floors get finished much better this time, and quickly. 💜
Thank you Nikki. Yes I love the finished feeling of the fabrics on the flexible surface too. I have been really lucky to have been gifted some beautiful fabrics. They are nearly finished with the floor now, it looks so much better, thank you x
Good morning Tina. Love the covers and fabrics you have used! I’m looking forward to what comes next. Hope you are having an amazing day and that you and your family are doing well. ❤️🌹
If you have enough fabric, completely cover the envelope with the thick fabrics and then add your thinner fabrics on top. Removes the “dips” and further supports the idea of patchwork. You could also (if your sewing machine has them) use decorative stitching to give the illusion that it’s a crazy quilt. I have a LOT of fabric, so I see this in my future, for sure!
thank you for showing the stitching of the fabric...so many times we only see the finished project with no idea how they did it. I really think I would enjoy seeing the whole project from start to finish on making the journal covers.
Wow! Those are great covers. I love the collaged and stitched ones best. And, It’s ok if there’s noise and table wobble - I know it might bother some, but not me. I appreciate the generous sharing of all your work. I also love it when people’s children, spouses, pets make appearances. Again, it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it is actually something that delights me - we get a small glimpse into your life and that’s great. Brava!!!
Oh thank you so much Lori. Also I really appreciate your kind words, yes filming as we do here on UA-cam real life just makes an appearance every now and then, lol x
Hi Tina - A great video here! You did have wonderful fabrics. I found this video because I was looking for some cover making ideas without repurposing a book. I find your videos encouraging and easy to accomplish. Thanks, Love spending time with you and learning.
I’m so excited about this tutorial I had watched the other with the signatures being put together had no ideal this one was first. I’m going to give this a try I have plenty (10-tubs) of fabrics , 😬😳 I use for making clothes & quilting what a fun weekend that’s about to take place! Thanks for sharing ❣️🥳!
Hi Tina, I’m also a quilter so I really like fabric covered journals, especially patchwork covers. That’s how I make all of my covers. I would like to see how you make a cover with card stock. I’ve never made one with card stock. Hugs 🤗
Oh you are so talented Linda, I would never be able to get things neat enough to be able to quilt. I will see what I can come up with for the cardstock covers x
Thanks so very much for all the wonderful ideas....I love the soft covers with fabric and is very informative the way you execute each one of them. Be well , stay safe. Warmest wishes from Arizona.
Love, love, love this video Tina. I am thrilled to see you do these covers and how you put them together. It is so helpful to see and hear your thought process. I am really enjoying these process videos. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Thank you, thank you! I have 1000 of those envelopes that my office was going to throw away and I brought them all home. Now I know what to do with them!!!
I have always had trouble with the covers. I will pull out my stash of fabrics and make some. I will let them dry overnight because the glue messes with my needle. Glad that you worked on the outside first so we will see how to do the inside cover. I am a visual learner... works for me. Thank you for the help. ❤❤❤
Oh thank you so much Laura. Like I say, it’s just what I find easiest, but I hope it will be helpful. I have so many beautiful heavyweight fabrics from you, which are just perfect for making a sumptuous cover, thank you 😊 x
OH MY GOD!!! This is your 1 1/2 episode of mass making. I remember all the times you thought you were running out of ideas. You have done am amazing job. I am so proud of you and happy to see your channel grow so amazingly fast. Congratulations on this episode and your growth. Blessings and Hugs 🤗
Oh thank you so much Susie, I really appreciate your kindness. Yes, it’s shocking how many different projects we have covered in these mass making workshops isn’t it? I started them because I struggled to make more than one of any item but they really are my favourite to film now, I love that it’s so productive and that we can just relax and chat 🙃. Thank you so much for supporting me and my channel x
Hi Tina, I never would have thought of making a patchwork cover, and the lace really looked nice on top of the blue. Love that, thanks for the awesome idea!
Good Morning Tina, I'm thrilled that you are doing the cover, I struggle with this and I'm so glad to see you showing us how from the beginning.. Really like the patchwork one.. I can't wait to see how all comes together... 😊 I hope you have a wonderful day 😘 oh I forgot to mention that I have watched Bridgerton and I don't believe it is suitable for a seven year old... There is quite a bit of sexy bits as you get into the show. I think you will enjoy it very much... ☺️
Thank you so much Donna, I am thrilled that you found this helpful. We have just watched the first episode of Bridgerton, yes already there were a few scenes that were not suitable (she’s not watching), absolutely beautiful costumes though. Have a great day x
Love the blue patchwork one, thanks for showing us your way as I get really stuck on patchwork. Now to see what material I have got. Thanks for sharing this.
This was very interesting and helpful. It will be nice to see the ways of making journal covers and how to decorate and use them. I love the material you used they were beautiful.
This really was an inspirational video Tina, I am just making a fabric cover and usually sew all mine onto another piece of fabric then glue to envelope, your way is much easier and quicker thank you 😊 Xx
Love, love, love this mass make! I have so many of those types of fabrics that you used on the last two covers, purchased for vintage fabric collage that I don’t make anymore. Thinking about the possibilities that you have inspired. Thanks Tina!
I really enjoyed watching the variety of covers being made. Such beautiful fabrics, makes me want to go shopping, but the numbers are too high for covid in this area, so I will be staying home a bit longer. However, nothing can stop me from doing a little shop online, lol. Love how you've added bits of lace sections to the cover. That is really gorgeous. I must get brave and try this. I am such a doily and old lace cloth hoarder.
I know what you mean about the numbers at the moment. It’s getting very worrying isn’t it? Shopping online is definitely best, hope you find some nice fabrics. I know what you mean about hoarding the doilies especially, as I very rarely find any so actually using them is really hard to make myself do, lol. Stay safe x
This is fab Tina! Beautiful work, love the colour choice. So pleased that your daughter enjoyed her birthday - its been very trying hasn't it? Bridgerton is a FANTASTIC series, and I mean FANTASTIC but very "raunchy" as the series goes on, mind you, don't be put off as it's well worth watching (but be warned ha-ha) - you work so hard and we all appreciate it! x
Wow Tina the fabrics were all so beautiful! Sometimes I make a fabric cover with just the fabric if it is a think fabric. Have you done any like that? It’s a really soft journal. I used paper on the inside but mostly love doing an all fabric one...if you do one on video I will do one too following you! I am sure many of your followers would too. Just an idea...hope your kitchen floor came out beautiful. Xx ❤️ Btw..I love your fabric collage which inspired me to start one. I will do the cover then do some embellishments, then complete the journal. Thank you Tina! Xx
Do you know I actually can't remember if I have done an all fabric cover or not! Lol. I think I did a Cinderella journal using only fabric for the cover, but I can't remember for sure. Too many journals!!!! I might have to give it another go (or first go quite possibly). It's so nice to have our kitchen back, thank you. Have fun with your collage cover x
We did an entire new floor during the first 5 weeks of the pandemic here in America (Which we did) . Our kitchen was supposed to be next year - then my husband got an itch to start it. As soon as he started he got called back to work for 6 weeks!!! Our kitchen was a mess - but I did have my stove!!! I totally understand!!!!
Oh my goodness, what a nightmare that must have been! I must admit my worst fear was that the lockdown restrictions would be tightened up again mid way through the job and that we would be stuck without our kitchen for weeks!!! Fingers crossed they are nearing the end x
Love how these journal covers turned out!! So pretty and nice to have some ready to go!! Thanks so much for sharing this. And no need to apologize for noise...5 days a week from 8am to midnight we get to listen to Navy jets circling right overhead doing their practice flights. I'd take the hammering noise!!! 😂
Fun, I worked along with you to make a cover for the journal I’m making for my daughter. I enjoyed Bridgerton, I don’t know how old your littles are but the series gets quite steamy towards the latter half, even for this old girl in my 60’ s 😉
Oh that’s fantastic, I am really pleased that you crafted along. Thank you for the heads up about bridgterton, I have just watched the first episode so far, and that was already a little risqué, lol x
Oh dear, almost double lockdown having to stay upstairs! Hope the work goes quickly! Ah pleased your daughter had a good birthday 🎂. Beautiful fabrics and covers! Looking forward to seeing more videos on this. I really need to get the tension sorted on my machine so I can use it again lolo 💖
Yes, that’s exactly how it feels, like a double lockdown, lol. I can’t wait for them to finish and be able to get the kitchen back! Hopefully only another couple of days now. The tension on the sewing machine, it really is a pain isn’t it? I often have trouble too x
Alrighty I am here now just made a cover YEAH!! trying to fill it now hoping to have a new journal or close to one by dinner... HO BOI!!! As my southern aunt used to say "We're cooking with Crisco now!"" lol ok lets see where I end up... toodles gotta play yeah xx
I was watching your "Quadruple Pockets" this morning. You were talking about not knowing Instagram has DM function. I had to laugh,...cuz I got a new cell phone this week cuz mine died. And I watch your UA-cam so much, that when my cell has been in my pocket, I hear your voice talking to me!!! "WHAT??!!?? Where is that coming from?? Is that TINA???!" GOOD GRIEF,...I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUR HOW I'M TURNING ON YOUR VIDEOS FROM MY POCKET. (BLAST,...sorry about capitals!) Had to share!!! Austin, TX USA PS- I don't use Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. When they transferred stuff to my new phone, I had 7,000+ unread emails!!! You are way ahead of me.
Lol, that’s so funny, I am going to read your comment out at dinner tonight, I know the kids will find it really hilarious too. Thank you for sharing, it’s always good to hear funny stories. 7000 messages, oh my gosh, what a nightmare! I think ignorance is bliss sometimes 🤭 x

Love these!!! If you're looking for another amazing show to watch together I have absolutely adored "call the midwife" it is my absolute favorite!! I haven't loved a show this much since Dowton Abby
I am so glad I watch this video. I have learned a lot. Especially when you pay the cover together with a different fabrics.
Absolutely love this❣️ I have hundreds of 3” x 5” decorator fabric samples that I’ve had for years but not known how to use. Now I do‼️
Wonderful Tina. You can barely hear the banging. The blue diamond fabric looks like curtain or cushion material. Love this type of cover. Frankenpage style. Much love xxx
Thank you so much Debbie and for the feedback about the noise. Yes you’re right the blue fabric does look like cushion or curtain fabric, I really love it x
Just watched this amazing video - so many things I now want to try, thank you so much for all the inspirational ideas 🥰🥰

Oh my gosh, since November 3rd!!!! That's such a long time!!!! What a nightmare! Hope you get it all finished soon, it will be lovely when it's done x
Gorgeous fabrics. You are always so calm and graceful while doing your demonstrations. It's enjoyable to watch. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your kindness x

What a cute mousie your daughter got!!!
Thank you Diane x
@@shabbydabbydoodah Happy belated birthday to her as well!
I think it would be great to do a week of journaling covers, I know I get stuck there alot of the time thinking of something new to do!
I will see what I can come up with x
Lovely fabrics x
Looking forward to more of the cover videos. The lace gave the cover alot of personality.
Can't wait to see the next steps. I'm excited to make one.
This really was an inspirational video Tina, I am just making a fabric cover and usually sew all mine onto another piece of fabric then glue to envelope, your way is much easier and quicker thank you 😊 Xx
Oh that’s fantastic Carol, I am all for easy! Lol. Hope everything is well with you x
Thank you for the ideas Tina 😁🇨🇦

Love your ideas so beautiful - giving me some great ideas for my journals
I’ve started watching “How to get away with murder” on series 2, and thoroughly enjoying it. X
It’s really good isn’t it? X
This is fab Tina! Beautiful work, love the colour choice. So pleased that your daughter enjoyed her birthday - its been very trying hasn't it? Bridgerton is a FANTASTIC series, and I mean FANTASTIC but very "raunchy" as the series goes on, mind you, don't be put off as it's well worth watching (but be warned ha-ha) - you work so hard and we all appreciate it! x
Thank you so much Suki for your kindness. I have watched the first Bridgeteron episode so far, yes it was quite raunchy!! Lol. x
Thank you for this I feel brave enough to start one now. Love the teddy

Btw..I love your fabric collage which inspired me to start one. I will do the cover then do some embellishments, then complete the journal. Thank you Tina! Xx
Do you know I actually can't remember if I have done an all fabric cover or not! Lol. I think I did a Cinderella journal using only fabric for the cover, but I can't remember for sure. Too many journals!!!! I might have to give it another go (or first go quite possibly). It's so nice to have our kitchen back, thank you. Have fun with your collage cover x
Great video. I wanted to make one for myself.
I REALLY need to get my sewing machine out and set up! Thanks for the inspiration Tina. Can't wait to see what to do with it next!!! 📖📘📒🧵TFS 😁
Coming up tomorrow x
We did an entire new floor during the first 5 weeks of the pandemic here in America (Which we did) . Our kitchen was supposed to be next year - then my husband got an itch to start it. As soon as he started he got called back to work for 6 weeks!!! Our kitchen was a mess - but I did have my stove!!! I totally understand!!!!
Oh my goodness, what a nightmare that must have been! I must admit my worst fear was that the lockdown restrictions would be tightened up again mid way through the job and that we would be stuck without our kitchen for weeks!!! Fingers crossed they are nearing the end x
Excellent video!
Love how these journal covers turned out!! So pretty and nice to have some ready to go!! Thanks so much for sharing this. And no need to apologize for noise...5 days a week from 8am to midnight we get to listen to Navy jets circling right overhead doing their practice flights. I'd take the hammering noise!!! 😂
Thank you so much for your understanding about the noise, you must be really good at blocking out noises now? X
Fun, I worked along with you to make a cover for the journal I’m making for my daughter. I enjoyed Bridgerton, I don’t know how old your littles are but the series gets quite steamy towards the latter half, even for this old girl in my 60’ s 😉
Oh that’s fantastic, I am really pleased that you crafted along. Thank you for the heads up about bridgterton, I have just watched the first episode so far, and that was already a little risqué, lol x
These are all great but I love the patch work one best I think.
Oh dear, almost double lockdown having to stay upstairs! Hope the work goes quickly! Ah pleased your daughter had a good birthday 🎂. Beautiful fabrics and covers! Looking forward to seeing more videos on this. I really need to get the tension sorted on my machine so I can use it again lolo 💖
Yes, that’s exactly how it feels, like a double lockdown, lol. I can’t wait for them to finish and be able to get the kitchen back! Hopefully only another couple of days now. The tension on the sewing machine, it really is a pain isn’t it? I often have trouble too x
😂I'm ready to chuck it out the window, I gather it's a very common problem. I'd love a one with automatic tension but wouldn't we all? Lo! ❤
Wow you should try living in north Devon, the whole village has at least one power cut a week. It’s like living back in the 70’s. 😻
Lol, we are really lucky here x
Just found you and subscribed and hit the bell, LOL, don't want to miss anything. Really want to try this out. I looks like so much fun. Thanks!
Oh thank you so much and welcome to my channel x
Alrighty I am here now just made a cover YEAH!! trying to fill it now hoping to have a new journal or close to one by dinner... HO BOI!!! As my southern aunt used to say "We're cooking with Crisco now!"" lol ok lets see where I end up... toodles gotta play yeah xx
Oh that's fantastic, sounds like you're going to have a great time today making your new journal x

Wow this is amazing and helpful!😊
I was watching your "Quadruple Pockets" this morning. You were talking about not knowing Instagram has DM function.
I had to laugh,...cuz I got a new cell phone this week cuz mine died. And I watch your UA-cam so much, that when my cell has been in my pocket, I hear your voice talking to me!!! "WHAT??!!?? Where is that coming from?? Is that TINA???!"
GOOD GRIEF,...I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUR HOW I'M TURNING ON YOUR VIDEOS FROM MY POCKET. (BLAST,...sorry about capitals!)
Had to share!!!
Austin, TX USA
PS- I don't use Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. When they transferred stuff to my new phone, I had 7,000+ unread emails!!! You are way ahead of me.
Lol, that’s so funny, I am going to read your comment out at dinner tonight, I know the kids will find it really hilarious too. Thank you for sharing, it’s always good to hear funny stories. 7000 messages, oh my gosh, what a nightmare! I think ignorance is bliss sometimes 🤭 x
