This may seem like a strange question - but can anyone give me the dimensions of an autograph book from Disney? My kids are too old for them now - but I sew, and I'm working on a kids' Disney bag and want to include a pocket to hold that all important autograph book and fat pen at the ready. Thought we had one from my kids around- and I'm sure we do somewhere, but can't find it. Thanks so much for your help!

I don't have an answer, but the bag sounds like something I want. Is it a single item/gift or are you planning to sell them? If you plan to sell them please PM me when they are available
 
Does anyone out there have a Disney autograph book they can measure for me? I'd really appreciate it - the bag is ready to be assembled except for this one pocket.
Thanks!
 

The standard autograph book (the blue one with all the characters-on the front-I am assuming that is still the basic one available) is 4 1/2 inches tall and just under 6 incehs wide. There are larger autograph books that can include photos the one I measured does not. Also in case it might help the standard Pressed Coin book is 4 inches by 5 inches. Hope that helps.
 
mine is for the real pretty puff cover picture books...pic on one side auto on other...its what they sell all over disney..shiny cover...we bought them last year in 07
 
Dimensions are 6.5 x 7.5". Mine has some photos in it already, so it measured 7/8" thick. The cover is padded.

What kind of bags are you making? I make those silly drawstring backpacks for about any occassion, wonder if I could add a pocket...hmmm....if I used quilted material...might be sturdy enough!!!

Thanks for the idea!!!:)
 
Thanks to all! I think I'll go with the bigger size and then it can be used for either size book.
The bag is drawstring, with backpack straps as well. First one is in Minnie colors (black/white, red/white polka dots). Off to the cutting board and then the sewing machine!
 
Thank you to all who responded - I thought I'd share a couple of pics of the bags now that they are done. 2 sizes - one for a small child with pockets for autograph book and pen, one for older child/adult that also has zip pocket for park pass/fast pass. Both have spots for Disney pins on the straps and on the Minnie/Mickey head. They're simple, but fun, and hopefully will be good to carry in the parks.
Thanks again -hope the pics work!

Thanks! Appreciate the complements!
Beehn: give sewing a try - it's not that hard. I didn't start sewing until a few years ago - still avoid sewing clothes - but I quilt and sew other things like bags. Now I'm working on designing some patterns of my own or adapting other patterns to suit what I'm looking for.
Thanks again!
 
Do you havethe pattern for these bags? I would LOVE to make this for my two!!!! Thanks Krista
 
Thanks again! I don't have a pattern - something I've "designed" myself - could maybe figure out a pattern - but what I've got written down so I remember what I did when I want to make more - is in my own shorthand - not sure if anyone else could decipher it. Sorry
