Selvage Project

For some time now I've been reading with envy about all the great projects made using only selvages. Karen Griska has a wonderful blog highlighting all these super projects. People are so creative in what they make.

Well today I decided to take a little time to make something just for me. I have a lot going on so it needed to be something easy but fun and rewarding. Here's what I came up with. I can hardly wait to start using it.
Here's the front of my "Not Just Another Note Pad"

Here's the back of the note pad cover






and a peek inside.

Thank you Karen for the inspiration.

    I, too, am a big fan of Karen and her selvage creations. Your notepad is totally gorgeous--might just have to make me one!

    What an adorable notebook cover! I love the colors and how you made the diagonal stripes.
