Learn how to sew a small simple journal covers with this beginner friendly PDF sewing pattern. This cover is specifically designed for the Moleskine Cahier's Collection, which are thin and come in a pack of three. For a tutorial on how to cover any size book or journal, see my listing for a Bible cover tutorial. These small journals make great handmade gifts for all occasions when paired with these cute covers!

I strive to create beginner friendly patterns, and to make sure you have all the instruction you need, I've created a full video walkthrough of this project to accompany this written tutorial, which you can find on the Pin Cut Sew YouTube channel.

This pattern does NOT include quilt piecing instructions. The quilted cover is one of the ideas for creative options, but the tutorial is for a single fabric version of the journal cover. It DOES include instructions for the elastic bookmark and pen holder.

PLEASE NOTE: You are purchasing a printable PDF of the journal cover pattern and instructions! You are NOT purchasing actual journals or journal covers, nor are you purchasing physical instructions to receive in the mail.

Refunds on PDF patterns will not be issued after the pattern has been downloaded.

I really like this project, but I don't feel like the assembly instructions are particularly clear. It would also be handy to have a reference for adjusting the size for different notebooks. I had a pack of A5 notebooks, but they're slightly wider than the Moleskine Cahier Large, so I had to add about an inch to the main pattern piece. Not the clearest assembly instructions.
