Book with a silver ribbon

I have just finished my book- the book with a silver ribbon in front. That was what I did at last weekend. I sewn the back of book by thread and needle. But I was not satisfied so much. The book is not tight.
Making a book follow this way is uncommon in Vietnam and I want to learn more. So i need a favor from my public.
I will try to make other books, maybe my skill will be better.

Hello new week.

I was ill at the weekend and had to take a test of Advanced Mathematics at school. That was too bad. After school I was laid low at home and wish Mommy were here. I missed the bowl of rice soup that Mom often cooks for me each time I am ill. Mom is not here, so I have to take care myself, cook a rice soup for myself…

Today, I feel better. I went to work soon and arranged a flower pot for a new day.

Have a good day and be well soon Doan Thuc!!

Net cover book

There are many ways to create a simple book for yourself. I punch two holes through the book, and lash it together with needle and thread. I took a net (one kind of net to make chair seat) I used green mixed white thread to crochet the hem.

hmm, Nobody make a book cover by net like me lol,
I love the green color of thread.

A simple book

Since I had a trip to Nha Trang last weekend, so i did not make a book as I planned on previous post. I am quite busy at that time, working and studying took it out of me. I wish I had enough time to do what i like or the day were 48 hours hmmm. Just a wish.
Anyway, i finished a simple book last night after school. I think it is so beautiful and it is easy to make one. I embroidered "Notes" to decorate the cover of book.

Here is my book:
