My Field Companion - Handmade Notebooks to Keep, Gift or Sell

What You Will Learn?

• The idea for the "Field Companion" came about when I was thinking of new ways to connect with friends and family I can't see at the moment. Many of us work from home and don't get the opportunity to spend time with those people who are really important to us..
• This made me think of creating a little notebook, which could fit into almost any pocket and like a little companion,  could be with you at all times.These companions are patient listeners, ready for your thoughts, ideas, doodles and drawings and can help you through these tricky times..
• A perfect little present to post to a friend or loved one..
• If you love stationery and beautiful notebooks as much as I do, then this class is for you. Based on the notion of the fieldnotes, scientists would carry around to jot down notes and observations, these cute notebooks - or field companions as I like to call them - will fit into (almost) any pocket..
• In this class you are going to learn how to cut the cover and pages, bind the notebooks using the 3 hole binding method and to finish them off, I'm going to show you how to add a cute band which will hold a set of three notebooks together, turning them into a perfect handmade present. You might even consider selling your own range of little notebooks, by using your own pattern designs for the cover..
• If you would like to take it further, you will also be able to learn how to add pockets to the front and back of the cover..
• The class resources also contain a set of downloadable field companion notebook covers, labels and "belly" band..
