I like the notebook project. I loved that you used the decorative stitches! It gives me another way to use my decorative stitches while working on my stitch book. Thank you for sharing your videos on UA-cam!
Great tutorial, thank you! I like the idea of lining the inside of the cork fabric with HTV!! Oh, the possibilities!! Have you ever tried lining it with fabric using a double sided interfacing? I enjoy your humor...you say it like it is!
Genius!! Love this tutorial that uses some of the beautiful decorative stitches that are on our machines. Love this project. Thanks for sharing your talent Jessica!!
I just learned about your channel and I will have to explore it. I like doing small craft objects in between working on quilts. Keeps the hobby of sewing interesting. This looks like a fun craft. I like planners also and this would be a neat cover for any sized notepad or notebook. It will also allow me to explore heat transfer vinyls. One more tool or tick in my toolbox!
Love it! I learned you can press cork and I had no idea how to use iron on vinyl until now. Great project and awesome directions. I see this in my very near future!Thank you.
Yes you do have to fiddle with bobbin tension. If you have a case rather than drop-in, a second case reserved for "fiddling", especially if you think you may do some more extensive experimenting.
Ive watched this a lot and keep going back to it. Im making a navy blue one for my son now. Not sure what to do on the front. Any ideas? Has to be a bit masculine..thank you!
I am in the middle of making this now! So the vinyl has a white sheet on back side that if you pull the tip a little it is adhesive. I leave the white sheet on and press. Then i take off the clear front and heat press.. that seems to be what I have to do. ? There were no directions that I could see. Thank you! The embroidery is fun but a bit wonky on mine.. no biggie!
I guess it would depend on him and what his likes are. If I was making one for my husband for instance, I would keep it very plain because that’s more his style. If your son is into sports or movies, etc. maybe you could decorate it in his preference. I also think it would look really cool to do some very simple stitches in neutral colors!
I’ve never used cork before but have always want to try it. This looks like a simple project to start with.

This is right up my alley! I love it and hope I can make several for gifts! Thank you so much!
This is a genius idea, I actually loved the beige bobbin thread. I am definitely going to try this.
I cant wait to make this! It was so awesome to meet you at the Sew Magical Expo!! You have such a wonderful personality!!

Adorable!
FABULOUS project!!! Highly recommend it!!

Thanks for the new patten. Great way to use those specialty stitches.
this is so fun! I am definitely making some of these as gifts!
I made your Cork notebook cover today. I used the knitted design cork and the vinyl lining. Thanks for the tutorial.

Beautiful I’m going to give it a try
Great project
NICE AND WE ARE FINE WITH THAT

❤️ Thank you!
I’ve been looking for a cover for a mini legal pad, thanks!
Great idea and video
Thank you so much.
Very cool! Thanks so much
I have done similar using heavier, hand wound threads in the bobbin, working from the back side.

Thanks for the tutorial!!! People have been selling the patterns for way too much. Can I use fabric instead of cork?
Thanks for this video! I need to make a slip on cork book cover for my journal. Would you recommend it be lined?
Ive watched this a lot and keep going back to it. Im making a navy blue one for my son now. Not sure what to do on the front. Any ideas? Has to be a bit masculine..thank you!
What could I use to make it stiffer, more stable?
Love this. What a great way to try stitches.
Do you have a source for HTV?
I love ExpesssionsVinyl.com. They have an amazing selection!
Great tutorial Jessica. I know what I can make with my knitting design cork. Can I use cotton fabric for the lining?
Sure but you would have to finish the edges. This is a raw edge project.
@@SewManyCreations Thank you Jessica

If the paper is white and the vinyl is sticky it’s probably not HTV but permanent vinyl. HTV has a clear top sheet and the vinyl is not sticky.
The back is white. The vinyl shiny part is sticky when you try to remove it. So its permanent? Can i use it or its for some other material?
Would you decorate the front of a cork notebook for a male? (My adult son)..
I guess it would depend on him and what his likes are. If I was making one for my husband for instance, I would keep it very plain because that’s more his style. If your son is into sports or movies, etc. maybe you could decorate it in his preference. I also think it would look really cool to do some very simple stitches in neutral colors!
@@SewManyCreations He is conservative but loves the idea of cork - vegan- sustainable-etc so maybe neutral colors good idea!
@@pamelaleitman9305 I would probably go plain and simple then!
We can I get the cork?
