Linen Cookbook Cover
This beautiful set of fabrics, won in a giveaway, and linen was to be a three ring notebook cover to keep my patterns and any ideas I found on blogs. I first appliqued the butterfly upside down and then cut the linen an eighth of an inch too short to fit the notebook. Opps! Measure twice, cut once. After a bit of adjusting, it happily covers my favorite cookbook, Williams-Sonoma Essentials of Baking. My favorite is the blueberry cheesecake.
