Thank you for getting me doing fabric and paper books of all sizes. Finding your channel has brought joy to my crafting world.
Glad to hear it!
Not only do I love your work, but I adore your explanations and narrative. You are a wonderful teacher, artist and inspiration! Thank you for all you do!!!
Leslie Rosenberg What a lovely compliment, dearheart, thank you so much! 😘
Cat, I am so glad that Icame upon your channel. I have boxes of scrap fabric
and papers. thank you from Ohio.
So glad you found us too! I use lots of scraps 😉 thanks for watching! 😘
I love this I was trying to figure out how to make the fabric stiffer. Tissue paper was brilliant then stitched it❤
Yay!! 😘
Thank you for an inspiring mini book. It encourages me to get in my studio and get to creating instead of thinking of every thing going on around me. Love your channel.
Jackie Hill, same here
Jackie Hill Oh gosh! I am so glad you liked it, dearheart thank you! Yes! Create, create, create! 😘
Simone Ceia Thank you! I hope you make your own book, thank you so much! 😘
Those are just so precious . I must make some. No worry if things are a bit raged or out of place. So freeing during this time of incarceration . Thank you so much for sharing your talents and ideas with all of us. Stay safe.
lynda holloway Hi Lynda! Thank you so much.. I adore raggedy edges.. thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! Be safe! 😘
I so enjoy watching you work, explaining your choices, picking through the bits of ephemera! My family and most friends don’t understand my love of little bits and baubles. I’ve grown accustomed to hearing “what do you want that for”. I especially loved when you fawned over the coffee ring on the envelope! I always buy old tea towels and antique linens that have some beautiful handwork, I feel as if I must rescue them. It makes me sad that they end up in bins at antique shops or second hand stores when so much love went into them. I do display mine but have some that are worn and have tears, holes or stains but I couldn’t bear to part with them. Now I know exactly how to you them! Thanks again for another wonderful video.
Diva Kreszl I am so sorry that you comment languished here.. my notifications must not be working properly. I just bought mor antique linens this morning and I completely understand thank you so much for your sweet comment my friend! 😘♥️♥️
Ciao Caterina, your sweetness makes my heart smile! Thank you so much for your soul and your inspiration. You creates beauty! Un abbraccio from Italy ♥️
giusi coluccia Ciao! Giusi! Grazie! My heart has been broken watching Italy suffer so.. and I so appreciate your kind words. Sending in abbraccio from Florida! ♥️
Love it and find it so relaxing to watch you glue things together!
Aww thank you, Jayne!!🥰
Hello Caterina, I just love this little fabric book, it's enchanting. I have made paper journals for a few years and I am embarking on new projects to keep my brain active. I'm 72 in May and I just love being creative and watching creative people. Thank you so much for sharing. Love Lita UK. xx
Hi Lita! Thank you so much and thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed it! We will be back this Friday! 😘
Caterina, So many thanks, You lift our spirits...
I have a table full of fibers and scraps...so my next activity...that's for sure..
Looking forward to the next
Abrazos grandes
Lucia
lucia romano Grazie! Lucia! I am so glad you will use your fibers and scraps! have fun creating! And thank you! 😘♥️
Amazing mini books!
I will try to get some of that kind of lovely fabrics.
Thanks so much for sharing!
Absolutely fabulous!! I love the thought of creating these buy truly letting go and seeing what evolves without perfection!
Donna Morgan Thank you Donna! Yes, they represent release to me.. and allowance.. thanks so much for watching and letting me know you enjoyed it! That means so much to me! 😘
FANTASTIC!!!😊 Thank you so much for sharing...♥
I have been a journal artist for about a year- and still learning more and more every day. Love the idea of the tissue paper between the fabric layers- I imagine the texture is wonderful!!
Brandy Thompson Hi Brandy! I have been creating visual art journals for many years and I am STILL learning! BTW, the tissue is not sandwiched it is merely glued to one side, giving a much needed weight and allowing for a sturdy collage substrate. Thanks for your comments! 😘
@@CaterinaGiglio - I am so thankful you reached out to tell me more about yourself and to give the tip about the tissue paper!!! I did share your video in a couple groups I admin and I know there was a lot of interest in making these little booklets!! We all love capturing that moment, that feeling-- so with your video as a guide- and your tip (which somehow I guess I misunderstood-lol) I am hoping we will see a couple come through the posting- giving you credit, of course!! Thanks again!! Looking forward to more videos!! Loving the 1st in the newest series, too!!
Brandy Thompson Thank you ever so much for sharing our videos... we so appreciate it. That really helps our channel 😉 so glad you enjoy it! Have fun creating! I look forward to hearing from you! 😘
Thank you so much for this video. I'm usually behind in watching as I pick up on a project and then work it for a while. When I want to try something different, I look to you for inspiration. I've been wanting to mix more paper and fabric and this is absolutely perfect to get me started! Your style is so gorgeous- heartwarming, ethereal and genuine and i just love it! Thank you, thank you -Monica 💘
Em Gem Hi Monica, what a kind thing to say! Thank you so very much! So glad you enjoyed the project! Hugs! 😘
Bella! This viewing was so bittersweet for me. The fabric book is so perfect and I so wish I could be watching this with my grandaughter and then making our own books. She will LOVE this project. But we can't see each other because of ..well...you know. And then all thr ephemera from Italy makes me think of my dear friends in Calabria and how Itaky feels so far away right now. Cat...I can tell you how much I look forward to making these tiny books with my grandaughter AV... (after virus!)
Wendy Wendy Hi dearheart... I had trouble keeping my tears from flowing at my “ciao for now” segment and stumbled on my words. I am so happy that you enjoyed it and think your granddaughter will love it too. Italy will never be the same, so many things will change, but our love of it will always remain.😘♥️💐
So cool to have found this little video about my country! Grazie!!! ❤️
Well.. I am Americano Italiano.. I go to Italy whenever I can.. COVID-19 has prevented travel.. but we return to Firenze in the spring! ⚜️😘
Love this beautiful little works of art, your work is so amazing. Thank you 🙏🏻😊❤️
Sheryl Esp I am so glad you enjoyed it, dearheart! Thank you so much! 😘♥️
I love it when you make books! I can always rely on you to make something lovely and organic. Thanks!🤗
Sharon Hoerth Organic!! That’s the word I was looking for!! It’s so rough on video.. words fail me sometimes .... thank you dearheart! Always lovely to hear from you! 😘♥️
So cute! I love tiny books!
I do too!! Thank you!
Caterina, this is the most charming little creation ever. Not only am I
loving it but I intend to create a small series permitting the fabric to
speak. Thank you sooooo much and be well and safe.

I love your work. I felt this project was made for me! Thank you.
JoAnn Garner Thank you, JoAnn! I am so happy to hear that it resonates with you! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to let me know! 😘♥️
Cat, I LOVE your “inch-ish” measuring method as well as loose threads! It makes the object touchable and loveable making the item a treasure! It also gives us permission to not achieve total perfection. So many book art pieces I see are so precise and sterile, but your work has heart. Just saying. Lol. Today is Watch Cat Day! I was stuck on a project and felt inspired watching you. Take care. 😊❤️
BOOK ARTS with Lori Taylor Hi Lori! I am never precise! 🤣Precision is for manufacturing 😉 thank you for watch cat day! Thank you so much! Be well! 😘♥️
I love your little books

123uschie Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching! 😘
Hello Caterina, thank you for sharing your sweet handmade booklets. I make junk journals and sometimes want to veer off that path for a bit and make ephemera and other items that are less time consuming. Your little booklets are the perfect project for me! I am currently working on two, have the covers made and am digging thru my fabrics, lace and paper for the pages. I love all your raggedy edges and threads hanging off the booklets. Thank you for the inspiration! Robin
Robin Sabo Hi Robin! Thank you so much.. I love an organic look and am so glad you enjoyed the video, thanks also for letting me know.. have fun creating. 😘
Omgoodness, I absolutely LOVE that barkcloth, I must try to find some.

Merci beaucoup! Frida! 💖😘
What great idea using tissue paper in between the fabrics x
Eva Oxberry Eva, it is just a piece of tissue paper glued to a piece of fabric.. it strengthened the fabric just enough to give it some weight so it turns better! You will love it! 😘
Caterina Giglio it’s the simple ideas that get me excited . I’ve been making a few little books this week, I’ll put them up in the FB group page. 🥰
Eva Oxberry I feel the same way, Eva! It’s always the tiny things! 💗
Really pretty xx
Thank you!!
Wonderful project. TFS
Melinda Reynolds Hey dearheart! Thank you for letting me know you enjoyed it! 😘
Just lovely little book. TFS .It's been a while since I was concentrated just on my dayli job...but now i have time to craft .. I'm isolated at homes and I'll try to keep busy myself. Hugs and kisses. Stay safe.
Designed by Tunder Hi Tunder 😘 So lovely to hear from you! Yes, stay busy and happy 😊 sending hugs and kisses back to you! 😘♥️💐

Shelly Hi Shelly, thank you so much! I am sure your book will be splendid! Thanks for viewing! Be well! 😘
This really inspired me thank you xxx I thought attaching the fabric pages to tissue paper was genius! I have managed to make my own little book - I've just moved to the countryside so I am going to put birds and flowers in it. I used hand dyed silk for the pages, which are great once stiffened. Thank you again and all best wishes from UK xxx
Carole Norman Oh how beautiful... hand dyed silk.. I think that is marvelous! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment on the video we so appreciate it! Sending back xxx’s
So yummy ! So beautiful ♥️ a gorgeous little book bringing life back to bits of discarded letters, materials, scraps, etc ♥️I've just bought a vintage cloth from a well known auction site especially to do this project. ♥️ keep safe and well 😍
purple plump Oh how lovely! It’s always wonderful to locate treasure! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for your king comments! Be well and happy creating!! 😘♥️💐
Bark cloth inside out...great idea, I'm going to go look at what I have and see if it's better on the inside.
😉😘
very nice. Thank you!!
L Mornes Thanks for watching! I so appreciate it! 😘
So beautiful 🌹
Eva Oxberry Thank you, dear Eva! 😘
Loved the book Cat. I have so many drawers full of bits....and a long time at home stretching ahead....xx
Chris Gray Hi dear Chris! They are so fun and easy to make! I love making them! Yes, we all have a lot of time on our hands right now. A perfect time to create. Be well! I am still planning on traveling to your part of the world and would love to meet you one day! 😘♥️
Beautiful work, so lovely! I'll give it a try. A kiss from Italy

Isobel Dunn Hi Isobel! So glad you found us! 😉 thanks for your subscription, watching and commenting ... we so appreciate it! 😘🌸💗
I have a hand carved bowl that is crying out to be filled with these. I have some linen and clothing pieces, cards, letters, etc from family members who have passed, I think this would be a great way to preserve these and add a photo and imagery that captures my memories of them. Thank you for the amazing inspiration. I am off to start gathering...
Sandy Babb Oh my friend! My goal is always to offer a bit of inspiration... and you make me teary eyed to know you would think of a vessel to fill with these little books! Thank you so much and thank you for watching, my friend! 😘♥️
These are so pretty. They would make a nice little gift to send to family/friends we can't visit right now. '
Kathy Martin Hi Kathy! What a splendid idea! Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for letting me know know! 😘♥️
Thank you for another wonderful video Cat- I don't have fabric but I do have a lot of different papers including some eco-dyed papers so may just have to try one. Thank you for your sharing. xo Terry
Terry Garrett Hi dearheart! Wait!!! No fabric? No old sheets? Old shirts 👕 nothing? Oh my heavens! I must send you an artist care package then!! Glad you liked it my sweet friend! 😘♥️
Love this little book, gonna make one, thanks Aug2020
lorraine durgee Yay! So happy to hear it! It’s always so nice to hear from you 😘
Thank you so much
Glad you liked it!
What a jewel, Cat! So small, but so evocative ❤️
mindy Thank you so much! ♥️
Hi! Just found your channel and subbed. Love your style and ideas are just what I needed for a direction. Have gotten side tracked from a mono printing, painting, traveling beginner artist, to a lost commercial crafter. Geez. Have been so unsatisfied and have been searching for myself again. I collect vintage items, love them and now I know what to do with them. They are for me to enjoy to create with them in a way I can look at them and love.
Love these little books you’ve created. A great way to start using up some of my vintage stash. Thank you for sharing.
Oh and is the paper you have sandwiched in the cover called cotti paper? I’m not familiar with that name. Vicki
TRYHEART67 Hi Vicki, the paper is Khadi and we have a link on my YT page.. I use it all the time. Thank you for subbing, watching and taking the time to let me know you enjoyed it! Have fun making tiny books!
Caterina Giglio 💕oh great! Thank you so much Cat! I looked there, but I guess I didn’t see it as Khati, lol. On a mission now to organize my vintage! You are so inspiring! 💕💕💕
Yes, I like stitching. Lets do it again.
Alrighty then! 😘
They are wonderful! Please correct me if I'm wrong but do you mean Broadcloth? Growing up with sewing in the family in a big way, I just thought of broadcloth. I could be wrong. If so. Then I learnt something new!🙂💞 As always, I get so much from your tutorials!
I'm watching this again...did you put tissue paper on both sides of the fabric pages... I can't tell from the video. I love this book. Thank you.
Jean Elliott Hi Jean.. just on one side. Sorry if it wasn’t clear, thanks for watching!
Caterina Giglio thank you,
💖💖💖
Debi Minter 💗💓💗 back!
Great little decorative, stylist books, I think with 6 pages in each book, right?after their tissue glued...love your channel, thank you.....
lorraine durgee Hi Lorraine! Thank you so much! Yes, there are two pieces of cloth/ tissue paper, per signature total of 24 pages . So happy to hear from you! Thank you! 😘
So there are 24 pages for each
Booklet including the tissue paper?
lorraine durgee Lorraine I cut 6 pieces of cloth and glued them to tissue paper. Then I let them dry and cut them out. I then folded them in half to fit my book. When I folded them they form 4 pages. I stitched them together and each one forms a signature. Since I made three of them there are a total of 24 pages.
Caterina Giglio thank you so much-it will be the first time making these....can’t wait..
lorraine durgee you can’t get it wrong.. if it doesn’t work.. you will learn! Have fun and do not be attached to the outcome 😘
I know this is an older video and you may not see my comment. This itty bitty book made my heart go pitterpat. There is one thing I am trying to wrap my mind around. From your directions if I glue the fabric to the tissue paper and then fold it in half I take it that one side of each page is the tissue paper? Thank you for creating such beauty and sharing it! 💕
Hi Gail, well you can glue tissue to both sides if you want..☺️
@@CaterinaGiglio wow thanks for such a quick reply! I know I could do that, I was just trying to figure out what you did because I couldn't tell since everything was white. Thanks so much! :)
Oooohhh, my friend, your little creation touched my heart! ❤️ Another project to add to my long list 😊 BTW, what is the name of your lovely opening music; it's so dreamy...relaxing. (It too is yummy!) Stay safe Stay well. Much 💕 love. 🌿🌸🍃
Janice Robinson Hi Janice, I am so happy you enjoyed it! Our theme music is a stock music piece.. we have used it for 3 years now and I still love it! Be well dear friend! Hugs and smoochie kisses! 🌸🍃💐💖
Caterina Giglio you’re so cute! 🌿🌸🍃
❤
😘💖
Do you talk about why you use gel matte medium? I don’t know anything abt it and don’t know what makes it different than craft glue or PVA. Thank you!
Oop! I just got to where you said that gel medium dries faster versus pva 😂 is that the only reason why?
@@GrungeGranny PVA is traditionally used for book arts. I use Golden Gel Matte Medium, because I am a professional artist and am accustomed to using professional product. When using an adhesive to glue collage, the image should be covered and edges glued down too.. this keeps the image from lifting.. if you are creating personal work then you would not need to use a professional quality adhesive.
@@CaterinaGiglio thank you!
Love your channel! What is Cottie paper? And what is bark cloth? All new to me!
Khadi paper is paper with a high rag content.. and bark cloth is a vintage fabric used mostly in the 40’s and 50’s… thanks for watching!
I just love this tiny little book, so l made two at one time, l have a question what do you use to clean your paint brushes, so they don't dry hard. Thank you 😊 stay safe
Christal Scott Hi Chrystal.. as I am using them I put them in water to keep them moist and I use Dawn dish soap to wash them out. Thank you! 😘
@@CaterinaGiglio oh thank you so much, because lots of brushes that are dry and hard, I am now starting the little tree book 📖 😄 you are great teacher and I just L.O.V.E all your videos, l wish l was able to afford the other papers 📃 you use, but l brought a lot of Mixed media paper, but one day I hope l be able to buy some, so far they are working well. Thank you again 💓
Christal Scott Hi Chrystal, mixed media paper is great to use.. and will work for most things.. I also use cheap chipboard brushes for glue brushes.. fine bristles will stick together much faster. I use them in my videos and they will croak eventually 😉
@@CaterinaGiglio Thank you 😊
Cotty paper? Where do you get it? Update: I see it on the list, spelled Khadi. What kind of tissue paper-- like the kind you buy for gifts? Thanks so much.
It is Khadi paper and here is the link.. amzn.to/3wm1FXi
Do you have 1 layer of lave tea towel then the tissue or a layer of tissue between two layers of tea towel
Carol Bogden Hi Carol, it is just one layer of tissue glued to the tea towel. Thank you for watching! 😘
Catering also like the little books. How do you spell the Cotte paper? And where can I get it? Thank you.
Delete this channel The paper is Khadi and in my comment section there is an Amazon link. Thank you for watching!
Cool what do you do with all your little books?
I sell them..😘
How do you organize all of your bits of paper and fabric?
Stacey Willard Hi Stacey.. here is my video on studio organization th-cam.com/video/P2ZvyeP_230/w-d-xo.html&feature=share
Coddie paper? Watercolor paper? Don't understand what it is.
The paper is Khadi paper.. very soft and perfect for mixed media.. here is a link.. www.amazon.com/Handmade-Paperback-book-Square-20cm/dp/B005UA6DI8
@@CaterinaGiglio It really looks like watercolor paper.
Thank you.
@@JUPANDY it is similar to watercolor paper, but has a higher rag content.. so it is easy to stitch and not as hard as watercolor paper.. it bends easily unlike watercolor paper.
