Wow this is one the best videos I have seen. Very organized, thorough and easy to follow! I can’t wait to make this and I will be doing it by hand as I don’t have a sewing machine! Thank you so much for the list of items needed in description, most do not include this and I don’t have to listen to it over and over to write them down! Bravo!! 🎉❤

I love this ideal. I keep my calendar on my iPhone, but I also like having a planner that I can write in.

I tried heat and bond instead of sewing as my bottom thread was going wonky on my sample of vinyl. It bonded to the cardboard but only patchy on the vinyl so I used FabriFix and it worked well. PS I also used a dental loop for flossing bridges to get the elastic through the holes 👍🏽

Thank you for your video. I need a new travel folder. I find it tough to buy what I want at a reasonable price. I like your idea of using vinyl because leather is very expensive. What I really need help with is making the elastics to hold the notebooks I want. Edit by the way, your finished journal is beautiful, and you used my favorite color too!
