"a pocket full of notes"

one of the little gifts created this year...

simple felt pockets,
stitched up the sides using embroidery floss,
a pretty covered button sewn on,
and a slit cut in the top flap for the button...

little notepads were then created...
I chose to cute the 81/2 X 11 paper into eighths,
then gluing together with a cardboard back...
making a perfect "pocket size" notepad,

then tucked into their felt pockets...

with a Christmas greeting...

and given to some of our sweet friends (and precious teachers)!
"a pocket full of notes"-
a perfect little notepad to tuck inside a purse-or a pocket!

Happy Monday!
Many Blessings!
Jill
