Very lovely! What kind of 'book' do you use for these journals?

How wonderful! EAch one is a little gem. I especially like that you included a loop for a pen.

These were all gifts, some just because gifts and the Christmas book you like I enclosed a poem with it. In a nutshell, it says to write down things that meant the most to you that Christmas, so you could look back and relive each wonderful experience.

I use a very expensive book for these journals. I get them from Walmart or the Dollar General and pay about $1-They are the black and white composition books.[ATTACH=CONFIG]606848[/ATTACH]

Like I said earlier, I usually quilt my own fabrics for purses I make, little cosmetic bags, changing pads, etc. I'm glad I showed you, because I like to give and receive new ideas, too.
