Pocket notepad with pen holder

Ever since middle school, I've always taken a pen and paper with me when I go out. Taking notes on the fly is great, because you don't have to remember them! I came into about 90 of these little sticky note pads that are great for just this application and at this rate, I'll never run out! Eventually, with the addition of car keys and a cell phone, my pockets became too cramped for just stuff the pen and paper in, so I made this little number. Another benefit of this is that it keeps your pen and paper securely fastened together. I lost a Parker pen out of a pair of work khaki pants, which partially inspired this.

This is something I made about 2 years ago, so there are no pictures of the actual construction process.
