Friday Finish: Needlebooks

I signed up for a needlebook swap, but I wanted to make something a little different than just a teeny little needlebook with felt pages. Not that they aren't adorable. I just wanted something, well, more.

I discovered this pattern by Aneela Hoey. Lucky me, she was having a sale too! I thought it was darling and perfect for what I wanted to make. And here she is. Actually, I made two. One for me!

After a little partner stalking, I decided on some Geometric Bliss for her and I love how it turned out.


This one is actually mine, but hers is identical. I especially love that little tulip pocket and the text fabric on the front. I made sure "Tuesday" was front and center. It's my lucky day. I got married on a Tuesday!


And then I wanted to make two more as gifts for some good friends. So here they are:


Checking these off the 2QFAL list. And I got mine shipped off just in time. Hope it gets there by Monday!
