DIY Grad Gifts and MORE Signs

I was inspired by this darling pouch for my lastest project. 

Its a gift for my cousin that recently graduated from 8th Grade.

@ Just Another Hangup

Here is what you need to get started.

I sewed on my bunting pieces on the cover piece. 

Sew your sleeves with the added pockets and turn them right side.  

Top stich along side edges of sleeves and place on top of back piece. 

Pin your sleeves to back piece and then place right sides together

Sew along edges and leave a small opening to flip right side.

Sew close your opening and slide over your notebook.

I sewed in a rubber band and added a button for closure.

I also added her name to the bunting.

Here is another Sign that Em just did!!!

She also turned this garage sale find into a cool gift for the grad too!
