The wee girl was a bit obsessed with it - wanting me to open it. She then said that she wanted to write notes in it. I opened it and left her to it for a few minutes.
When I turned around again I saw that she'd used about a third of the book writing "notes".... of the musical kind. Three year old style... one or two on each page.
The cover is removable (and the books replaceable) so together the wee girl and I can continue to fill many more notebooks. I intend to sketch ideas instead of trying to carry them around in my head... 
Sandra's very swish iron-on label reminded me that I've been meaning to do a post about labels for a really long time.
People often ask me where I get mine made. My sew-in labels are printed at a small firm in Carnegie (Direct Label Supply) - they don't have a website, so apologies to international readers. (Mind you - I rang Morrie from Ireland once and he sent labels to me!). Direct Label Supply have been making my labels for 20 years and have kept the printing plates on file for me all these years. After the initial set-up of getting the printing plate made, it's really cheap to get a thousand or two labels printed. Last time I had a thousand done (about 6 years ago!) it cost about $85AUD (and gets cheaper per-unit as you increase the quantity of your order).

If it's small quantities you need, the wonderful Maya has these tips and tutorials on making your own, and I know there are other companies specialising in short runs... I just have no experience of using them. Do you?
I thought I'd open up the comments here for you to share any information you might have about where you get your labels made, or links to tutorials on making your own. Anything that might help people seeking information on the subject.... I'm sure it'll be greatly appreciated!
