Two quickie covers for small pocket size notebooks, done as doodles on an overseas business trip and on vacation at the beach (still in progress). Cotton floss on cotton even weave. Finished book about 3" x 5" x 0.3". Patterns adapted from upcoming Second Carolingian Modelbook.

They are still not quickies! Since they are for appointments maybe "timelies". No matter there is a sitll a lot of stitches to make those lovely patterns. What thread count are they on! Looks like about 32-36 cnt to get the detail.
Comment by kbsalazar on July 9, 2012 at 16:06 Thanks everyone. Just to be precise - these aren't covers for paperback books or other readables. They're for itty bitty pocket or purse-size blank notebooks that folk use for jotting down thoughts or appointments. They are only a bit large than 3x5 inches, and come equipped with the placemark ribbon.
