take note!

aaaaaaahhhh....

i *love* the way all these notebooks look together!

 covered notebooks are really fun to me because i rarely work in large amounts of fabric, 

but with these you get to see so much of the loveliness!

 

but i digress - i could be distracted by beautiful fabric all day if i let it.

oh wait. 

i do.

ok, back on track...

the real reason i'm showing you all these pretties is because not only are they fun to look at, 

they are also really useful!

i use one as a mailing list at all my boutiques.

how fun would it be to have a guest book at your house that friends and family could leave little messages in?

i have another that i use for work, to sketch designs and ideas in, to make list after list, and to take notes in.

keeping grocery lists, errands and to-do's all in one place would be so helpful, too.

 do you have a conference coming up?

these are great notebooks to whip out during a seminar to stylishly take notes in.

they close with a button/elastic closure, and have a coordinating pen/pencil pocket on the inside flap.

i'm going to the creative connection in september.

just got my plane tickets last night!!!  

**giddy**

not only will i be carrying my own notebook to the sessions i'll be attending,

but i'll also be a vendor in the handmade market, where you can get your own.

let me know if you're going, i'd love to meet you!

there are so many other conferences out there coming up (or going on right now!).

are you going to blissdom '11?

get your notebook ahead of time!

ok, time to get back to the sweatshop!
