Oh thank you for reminding me of this fold. I made these years ago while teaching middle schoolers- we made them into poetry booklets. I had forgotten all about it!

WOW! The unusual shape gives it pizzaz. Quicker than a journal + signatures. Your embellishments are the piece de resistance. Here I come for Pt. 2.

Initially this did not appeal to me at all, but you are making it amazing with your embellishing! Now, I want to make an exploding booklet for my grandson. TFS the inspiration, Barbara!

After a difficult day at work, it is so nice to come home to one of your soothing encouraging videos. Thank you, Barbara.

Your pink nails are so pretty! Embracing your neon phase, I see

So fun & interactive!! LOVE the teeny little tag & string details you added!! Off to watch Part 2 now...

I love the tiny details you add. So cute.

OMG I love this booklet. I already made a card using this fold. The recipient loved the card. Thank you. 😊

Adorable! My daughter gave me one a bit smaller from a craft fair. She put pictures of our grandkids in it. It fits in my handbag and I love it! (Even tho, now the pictures are about 6-7 years old!) TFS🤗

This was exciting to see how this comes together. I look forward to next week and watching this be completed. Thank you for sharing with us. *Debbie*

This project is exquisite! I love the theme. You have inspired me to make this as a gift for my daughter yay!😍

L💮ve this so far! Looking forward to Part II and seeing how you finish up this booklet! Your tutorials are the BEST, Barbara!

Love this origami style booklet. Can't wait for part 2.

This looks cool so far…wow! That was a lot of fussy cutting!!! Oh, loved you idea for hand stitching randomly around the edge too!

I did this fold but a lot smaller to go in a journal. I love this idea with it being bigger and the pockets etc. Love all your papers. Can’t wait to see the rest of project. TFS Barbara! ❤️

Thanks! I’m sure it’s adorable in small as well! 😊❤️

I love it so far. On my way to watch part 2. Little tip for your viewers that, like me, do not have that handy distress tool. I keep the dull blades from my paper cutter and when I want to distress and rough up my papers, I switch out my new blade with an old dull one and I get the same results, much quicker and easier on the hands. 😘

Loving this. Anxiously awaiting part 2.

I love this project. I used card stock and it was really thick, so I placed it in my flower press. It looks really flat now but goinh to leave it there for the day. Thank you for sharing

So inspiring! Beautiful project. :) I'm thinking one of these as a small Christmas gift to two of my young relatives... Looking forward to part two! :)

I started making this one yesterday but I didn't think the fourth (diagonal) fold is necessairy. so I made 3 folds :) Works just fine. I love your album, your creativity is a huge inspiration!

Looks so fun to make!!! Thanks for sharing your creativity with us💜

I looooove this!!! I was thinking how i would get my big designs in my 12x12 winter tales papers in my smaller journal and this is just perfect!! Thank you so much !!!!

Very impressed, you do so much work on every item you produce. And... The outcome shows how much all those little details add to the finished item. Well done.

Thanks Bárbara por incluir las medidas en cm! You are 💫

¡ Qué gran trabajo! Deseando ver la segunda parte. Gracias

Neat idea. Cute good job. Looking forward to seeing more.

I've made these over the years and they are called squash books. You only have to fold one diagonal line, which is what I do (I think it also looks nicer with one less line/crease).

Have never seen this before - how very COOL! Thank you for sharing! I hope the move is going smoothly. /Ditte in Skåne

What a great idea! One for the try out pile. Thank you xx

So cool Barbara! Can't wait to see the end product!

Barbara, I was wondering why I wasn't getting notified about your videos...seems we have gotten unsubscribed from each other. This happened with another person I was formerly subscribed to and then no longer was getting notified about her videos. I believe our new kitten has been on my keyboard. At any rate, I am a new subbie, again!!!!!!!! Unbelievable!!!!!! You just have to love our little Bitsy Baby!!!!!!!

Oh I love this. We call them squash books. I haven’t made one in years. I’m going to have to make one now. 💜💜💜

So very cool! Can't wait to make one!

So freaking adorable 🥰

Already gorgeous 🤩🤩🤩

Love this

I had just made one of these for a friend and discovered there only needs to be one diagonal fold all the flat areas are on the other diagonal fold. It helps with the confusion of where things should fold when there is no fold line on the flat areas. So there are two cross folds and one diagonal fold!
