Notebook cover As requested I made a small tut on how-to-make-a-bookcover the way I do it. I used the test I did for the cross stitch design, to be found on Yoriko's site.

Cross stitch pincushion I digitised and stitched out today, front and back took 10 minutes each, on top of part of a piece I have been working on for years. That one has 14 threads or 7 crosses to the cm and is a bit hard on my (current) eyesight.
