I have a picture that's 10x10 that I wanted on the cover, so I wanted to make a handbound journal that was about 12x12. Can you use this same idea for a larger journal, or would it be too heavy?

I'm using a really soft black and purple paisley pattern. It looks really nice. I finished one of them and it's so great. I ran out of glue, and we're having a bit of a blizzard so I won't be able to finish the other until tomorrow, but they're perfect for a gift. Super cute.

I close friend of ours passed away last weekend, leaving behind his wife and 4 children. I'm in the process of making a journal for each of the children - a place to keep the memories of and letters to their Dad. Thanks for the guide for making the books. You've allowed me to give them something special and personal at a tough time in their lives. Thanks so much for posting this tutorial.

Well, maybe not for everyone. Because I am making most every gift, as well as store things, swap things, and personal items, I have to start soon. Other wise, I have to actually buy premade and where is the fun in that? There will be Christmas present progress pictures, so I will have to warn the recipient not to look! I think for friends, I will be making these awesome notebooks. I just love the idea of picking fabric for the cover, as well as choosing fun papers for the inside.
