Requested video for my friend Rhonda - hope you enjoy this one 😊
Lovely fabric just made for the job
Thank you 😊 yes it turned out really well very happy with the gorgeous fabric. ❤️
Thank you 😊 very helpful!
You are most welcome glad you found it useful 😊
I haven’t done a soft spine as of yet and was making a small art journal for one of my granddaughters with which I wanted a soft spine so it would lay flat. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Susan I’m so glad you found my video helpful thank you for letting me know. It’s lovely to hear feedback like yours ❤
Thank you. I'm trying this technique next week! I have a book like this I want to use.
Wonderful! Glad you found some ideas 😊
I'm so excited! Right off the bat, you said, "let's see what it feels like". That is key! I can't wait to try this technique. It never occurred to me to put fabric on the inside and the outside! I already had the signatures attached to a heavy piece of water color paper. I would have been better off taking them off and then sewing them back in! I still might do it! What you did is so much more beautiful and finished looking! I have a ton of book covers. I don't think I will ever do a hard spine again. It's just too much trouble. Squishy is more fun! Thank you Carol for doing this for me! I was thinking about doing a hidden spine which I think I could have done if I had sewn the signatures onto a piece of fabric first , instead of the water color paper! I think I am going to take the whole thing apart again! I will keep you posted. I don't need the rounded piece of chipboard at all. It comes out rounded looking the way that you did it. Thanks again, Carol! I'm on a mission! lol This video is one of many of yours going into my "saved" junk journal playlist!😊
Hi Rhonda 😁 yes it’s all about how things feel to me also. I’m so happy you are inspired to try it and you can adapt the size to fit your signatures !
I will do a hidden spine version next week if you can wait that long 😊 or have a go just sew your signatures to the fabric and cover the outside and your good to go.
Thank you for the suggestion and for your never ending support it means more than you know ❤️
@@RecraftedByCarol I think I'm going to dislodge the signatures, cover the piece of water color paper with fabric, and then sew them back on. Either that, or I will just sew them into some of the spine fabric, which would be softer. I can always use a tutorial on using fabric for the structures! I love the concept of "squishy"! I can wait! LOL Thank you, Carol!
@@rhondacalderone862 you are so welcome 🤗
Wonderful, thank you!! I'm making my first BIG junk journal and couldn't decide what to do about the spine, so this is really helpful. 😊
Hi Leigh that’s fabulous 😁 I’m so happy you found my tutorial helpful and lovely of you to let me know. Good luck on the big spine 💕
I love the book pattern on the fabric!📚
Thank you it’s so cool isn’t it I will use it to cover a journal one day 😊
Thanks to Rhonda for the request and Thank you Carol for sharing and teaching us how you do this!! xo
Hi Caroline it’s my pleasure 😊 obviously this is just one way to do it I try new ways all the time ❤️
I saw this awhile back and have been trying finding it again for a week so glad I found you again! This is awesome
Glad you found me too 😊 I’m happy to help !
Thanks so much--loved how your soft spine came out....and that is beautiful fabric for sure!! hugs, Julierose
Hi Julie thank you for watching and commenting yes the fabric is really cool 😊
Thank you for showing us how this is done.
Hi Sindy you are very welcome 😊
Thank you for teaching us, I am a newbee and this is helpful!
Fantastic I love being able to share what I’ve learned 😁 welcome to my channel and thank you for commenting ❤️
Hi Carol, this is a great tutorial! I love the fabric you chose to work with. 😍
Thank you Jovi 😁 much appreciated my friend 💕
LOVED this video; so inspiring. One question though, how do you attach the signatures? I've hunted through your tutorials , but can't find. I've been wanting to make a soft cover sketchbook with watercolor paper, and this is so cute!
Hi Jeanette thank you I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😊 you would add the signatures the same way as in a hard spine, I personally would use a 3 hole pamphlet stitch ! I have a couple of videos where I do this, for a hidden spine method see this video - th-cam.com/video/3ZNV8y56TpY/w-d-xo.html
And for a basic 3 hole pamphlet stitch it’s this one - th-cam.com/video/VKD-RIe9QWE/w-d-xo.html
I hope this answered your question 😊
Could this type of outer book be used for fabric pages for a fabric stitch up?
yes have you seen the second part of this tutorial ? hopefully I have clicked the correct link . Let me know if this was useful x - th-cam.com/video/3ZNV8y56TpY/w-d-xo.html
