This is the cover.......I made the background fabric (my first attempt at nuno felting) then I hand needle-felted and stitched on top. 
Inside front cover (I should have put a date - I will do that when I stitch it together).
First page........ (my favourite)
Reverse of first page........with extra embellishment added! 
Inside back cover (don't really like this but hey...we learn and grow by making mistakes!) 
Back cover...... same technique as front .Here are a few close-ups.....
Dot is so well-organised; I already have her book! (The pages are scrumptious; you just want to hug them!) So now I need to start thinking about what I will do for her book ........ no pressure then, LOL !!!!!

Gorgeous book Linda and I do like the 'Believe in Miracles' page with the extra embellishment.
Linda...I am blown away. These pages are stunning. There is so much beauty in all the details of them and the colors and images are wonderful. I love the page with the tree. love the look of the felting too. Wish I knew how to felt because I always think it looks so pretty.
This is beautiful! I applaud you.... because as much as I adore the fabric journals.... that is the one thing I have no interest in attempting. I know myself well enough to know I would have all five of my fingers swen to the book by the time I done! LOL
Beautiful work~!
So pretty, Linda. I love the embellishments!
Wow wow wow wow wo incredible fabric art and really unique book. I love all the sites. Fantastic work.
Hi Linda,
Your work is stunning! The colors and the texture are really incredible and of course I want to jump through my computer screen and touch and feel... very, very lovely! What a fun group to be a part of!
Have a wonderful day.

Your fabric book pages are just beautiful - I love them all, especially the first one. I don't know what I shall do with my silk papers yet, which is why I didn't colour them, but I'm sure they will be just the thing for something in the future.
I'm always amazed by your creativity! Those rich colors are beautiful!
