This notebook is 6" x 9" and has 120 pages. It's on their text weight paper which I have mixed feelings about. I'm worried about using an ink pen on the pages as I'm afraid it might bleed through.
The first 40 pages are a mix of my photos of quilts and lined pages. I wanted it to serve as a notebook and graphing book.
I just chose pictures of some of my favorite projects and inserted them. I placed pictures about every fourth page.
From page 40 to the end of the book, I used graphing pages rather than lined. The graph lines are quite light. You can barely see them in this photo. They are usable, but I do wish the lines were a touch darker.
Overall it was a really fun experiment. I love having a little notebook to carry in my purse to sketch while also looking at past projects that I love.
**I didn't receive any sponsorship from Blurb for this book or this post. It's just a product I wanted to try.

Oh my gosh, that is SO pretty!!! I'm a total notebook dork, and I've never heard of Blurb...I'm hopping over there right now, I might need a new notebook for myself... :)

what a fun idea! i just love your notebook!
Oh that is so beautiful! Would be also so lovely present! x Teje
That looks like a really great gift too!
Your notebook came out fabulous. I've done note pads before and photo books but this is such a clever useful combination.
Love it! what a great idea! How much did it cost? I'm afraid to even ask!
That is really super awesome!
I've never heard of Blurb, but I'm checking it out now! This is beautiful!
That`s so beautiful Kati and totally inspirational! Hopping over to blurb now.
That is awesome beyond words!
Hmm, I've used Blurb for photo books in the past, but haven't ever tried their other products, maybe time to give them a go!
What a great idea and a keepsake with your pictures added in. I recently discovered the joy of graphing.
This is gorgeous and you could be selling THESE! I'd buy one for sure :-)
what a great idea!!!
these would make great gifts for my quilt group.
I love it! is a great idea to give to other quilteras
Super clever idea!! I especially love the cover.
Great idea. I also just made a book of my blog. It's like a journal I can hold and read.
That's fabulous.
This is cool. I made a notebook for me a few months ago with my shop/blog header on it and love it. I used a different company though and it is great quality. I should blog about it!
