 MATERIALS LIST:

In addition to the Sweetheart Needlebook Kit or Sweetheart Needlebook Refill Kit,
you will need the following items to complete your Sweetheart Needlebook:

one 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" piece of fabric for front panel of needlebook
one 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" piece of fabric for back panel of needlebook
two 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" pieces of fabric for inside panels of needlebook
one 12" length of 3"-3/12" wide lace for inside pockets, or
two 5-1/2" x 12" lengths of fabric for inside pockets
two 1-1/4 yard lengths of size 5 Pearle Cotton for finishing edges of needlebook pages
two 36" lengths of size 5 Pearle Cotton for attaching needlebook panels
one 36" length of size 5 Pearle Cotton for making hinges and button loop
one 27" length of piping, braid or lace for outside edge of needlebook
small amount of braid or an elastic ponytail holder*** or material of your choice for button loop
one shank button (optional)
one tassel (optional)
Ribbons**, floss and beads of your choice.

*100% cotton flannel and batting are recommended, as polyester will wick moisture, causing pins and needles to rust.

**Approximately 2 yards of 7mm silk ribbon in various colors was used to embellish the front panel of this project, with approximately 3/4 yard 7mm silk ribbon used for leaves. Note that variations in ribbon add to the appeal of the embellishment. This is a great opportunity to use up scraps from your "ribbon compost bin."
Making a rolled rose, for example, from two (or more) different shades or colors of plain ribbon, gives the illusion of hand dyed ribbon having been used.

***I learned about using an elastic ponytail holder from Marie Alton, who designed a chatelaine pattern that I made. To learn more about Marie's work and her Chatelaine pattern, please visit her website at http://sredeluxe.tripod.com/.
