i am finally posting something i made back in january. i have been behind on my book a week project and couldn’t figure out why.

this little number was made from a  regular calendar i cut apart and pamphlet stitched. at the top of each section was a space to write notes. these fall in between the months and are great for jotting down phone numbers or to do’s.

i added a gusset pocket in the back for extra bits.

so far b.a.w. has been going well. i have skipped weeks and then caught up. i hope to be more regular now that i have a bunch of text blocks ready and have all my book supplies organized.

yay!!!!!!
