    It's me again Wendy. No you were not boring at all. And the sewing sounds, etc were not annoying me one bit. This was so perfect for me. Thank you again. God bless. Becky B

    We are stuck in Germany quarantining from Covid, so I have so enjoyed your videos. They sooth me when we are dying to get back to the US. Thanks for all your videos!

    it doesn't matter how long your videos are. on the contrary, the longer the better. They are never boring and always interesting and educational. Many greetings from Germany

    What a lovely way to close a journal... I like that its included on the cover and not something just clipped on. Going back into my '70s macrame period, that is a Lark's Head knot... a pretty name for something basically utilitarian. And as a former bridal seamstress, I love the sound of your machine. TY

    Wenfy, this was an amazing video tutorial💞. You explained everything so well and I really appreciate it as I am sure everyone else has. The video was only 35 minutes. Wish more were only 35 minutes. Thank you so much💖💖💖

    Thank you for showing how to do this! I have to admit that Im glad the eyelet pulled through, it saved me a lot of figuring out how to fix it. Definitely not boring.

    I love your journals Wendy thanks for sharing how you construct them. On this one I especially like the closure. I’m going to make one for sure now. I would love to share a tip that I use to keep the eyelet from coming out of the hole when putting one into fabric. I punch the hole in the fabric with the smaller hole on the crop-a-dial and then put the 3/16” eyelet into the smaller hole. The fabric will give enough to put it in. Then I crimp it. And bobs your uncle, lol. Have a great day!

    No way was I bored. Not at all. This is genius! I’ve never seen this before. I even love the way you tied your charm. I had never seen that either. Mine kind of stick out funny. I’m fairly new at the junk journal phase. Lol. This is so pretty. I love the neutral colors. So well done. Hugs, treen 🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍

    I just stumbled onto this series tonight. What a fabulous video! I first watched the one released for today, June 25, 22. But this journal looked so good I had to come see more from the beginning. I love that cover! That fabric looks amazing! And I love how you fix issues. LOL.

    @patpowell6684 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like the fabric tape behind the eyelet too. This is absolutely perfect for something i have in mind, you did it just at the right time. Thank you so much. By the way, if someone is watching a video that has machine sewing in it they must be prepared for the noise. Do now think you should apologise you are showing us something we need to see being done. Bye 💁🏼‍♀️

    32:44 I think reinforcing the fabric with that fabric "sticky tape" was actually a better idea in the long term; I'd probably try to do that myself in future as the underlying fabric has a tendency to fray with usage. Thank you very much for showing the whole process for this great cover too.

    Great information Wendy, thanks so much for sharing this. I've got a large canvas drop cloth I've been wanting to use for journal covers with maybe some additions to them later on. I have no desire to make journals for selling, I just want to be able to make them for myself since I know I'll never be able to buy a journal from you or any others that make journals on TH-cam. So again, thank you ever so much for doing this. I appreciate it more than you know. Hope you enjoy your time at the cottage. Sure wish I had a cottage or anything similar that I could go to and be able to create without distractions. Okay, one more time - THANK YOU. Take care and God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
