Sue's 50th Birthday Journal

I am particularly fond of this journal as it is the first one I have made as a gift. If you know Sue (my lovely MIL) you will know that she lives for denim. Now this is not normally my style, but I am happy to say I think I found a way to satisfy Sue's denim fetish and give it the Ali stamp at the same time.

This journal is a first in many ways. It's my first fabric-covered journal (I have the glue gun burns to prove it), my first journal with a closure (velcro!), my first journal with a customized cover page (this will prove useful I think) and my first journal with pockets (notes in the front, and pen in the back). I'm quite proud of it and hopefully they will just keep getting better.
