This is our handmade Father's Day gift (which was accompanied by the complete season 5 of LPH).
I created some fabric notebook paper (The 'Ol Stitcharoo has a little tutorial here). Once the notebook fabric was created, Lily wrote the words in pencil in her own writing and I embroidered over top.
For the notebook fabric, I used heavy white twill, then I sandwiched some insulbrite batting and backed it with some ticking (old pair of shorts!).
