• Step 1

  First, measure the exact side of one side of the diary. Cut 2 pieces of cross-stitch material this size.

• Step 2

  Sew on the 'grass' and the bunting flags first. I used a machine for this, or you can hand sew, but a machine zigzag stitch stops the material from fraying too badly.

• Step 3

  Then, embroider the flowers/grass things, using your colourful embroidery threads!

• Step 4

  Add any buttons or embellishments on now.

  Repeat steps 2,3 and 4 for the other piece of cross-stitch material.

• Step 5

  Attach the two pieces of cross-stitch material to each side of the diary (front and back), using Double Sided Sticky Tape.

• Step 6

  Then cut out long strips of blue gingham using pinking shears, to act as bias binding. Glue this onto the sides and the spine of the diary, and you're done!

• Step 7

  If you have any questions, please comment below or message me. Thanks for looking at my project ^^
