How Sew a Super Easy Fabric Book Cover // DIY Sewing Tutorial // Easy Sewing Project

[@Deborah-sr4by]

Great for a cover for my Great Aunts' family Bible. Will add handles. Thank for being so thorough.

[@staceyleecreative]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching 🤗

[@mrsshirleyhogge4]

I am going to make one for my Bible.....so glad I saw this about adding batting as its flimsy. Then I'm making a couple for my grand daughter for Christmas who reads constantly!!!!

[@staceyleecreative]

That sounds like a wonderful plan! 😊 Adding batting will definitely give it that extra structure. Your granddaughter is going to love those book sleeves for Christmas! If you haven’t already, please subscribe-I’m on my way to 100k! 🌟

Hi Stacey! Thank you so very much for this incredible video! You've got a real way of teaching it so thoroughly and it seems so easy! I'm looking forward to trying it!

[@staceyleecreative]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, I really appreciate it ❤

[@bettyking5032]

I have looked at many book cover tutorials and made a number of covers, but this is the one that makes the most sense, and I can even add pockets for pens or pencils without changing the basic pattern. Thank you!!

[@staceyleecreative]

That's wonderful to hear! I'm so glad you found it helpful 😊

[@angprawn]

I was about to sew a fabric cover for my Bible with a beautiful bit of Irish linen, was a bit unsure of construction and I’m so glad I found this before I got the machine out! Thank you!

[@staceyleecreative]

Wonderful! I am glad you found it helpful!

[@kathleenkumiega1092]

I’m going to sew one for my neighbor, she always has a notebook with her at our quilt guild meetings. Thank you for this video

[@staceyleecreative]

That sounds lovely! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment ❤

[@Ilse-w1v9x]

Very good presentation. Easy to follow.

[@margueritemorris4484]

the book cover is so gorgeous!! i especially like the fabric you picked out, i was extremely taken by it. i will definitely be doing this to my notebooks, and honestly it seems now like a fun thing to do to my computer as well, though more likely as a bag. haven't sewn in ages, but now i feel quite fired up. thank you, and have a lovely day!!

[@staceyleecreative]

I am so happy you are inspired to sew! 🧵 Thanks for watching ❤️

[@galemckiddy5120]

I admire the way you pay attention to all of the details! Your sewing is meticulous and to be admired. The cover is so colorful and I like that the inner pockets are generous in size. Thanks!

[@staceyleecreative]

Thank you so much, Gale! 😊 I really appreciate your kind words. I’m glad you liked the cover and those big inner pockets! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!

[@marylorenz6433]

Hi Stacey. Finally able to watch a video live. Just spent the last two days at the Charming Shop Hop in southern Indiana with Patti Taylor, Debbi Vogt and our driver (Patti’s husband). Tons of fun!

[@staceyleecreative]

Wow Mary, that sounds like so much fun 🤩 and home in time for the live video ❤️

[@TheresaDixon-j2u]

Thankyou for this super easy to follow tutorial I've made 3 this morning in 2 different sizes by following your instructions

[@staceyleecreative]

You’re very welcome! 😊 I’m so glad you found the tutorial easy to follow. That’s awesome that you’ve already made three in different sizes-well done! If you haven’t already, please subscribe-I’m on my way to 100k! 🌟

[@darlenedavis8690]

Thank you so much for your tutorial. I needed something quick and easy for end-of-the-year teacher gifts. I know these will be perfect and I can get them made in a couple of days. Thank you again.

[@staceyleecreative]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for leaving a comment, I really appreciate it!

[@janicelarue1760]

I'm teaching a Christmas in July class at my local quilt shop. This will be the "gift" idea project. Although I am teaching and giving the directions, your video is referenced, in writing, so when they get home and forget 3 week's later they will still have instructions and measurements. This is such a fun project! My sample is in hummingbird fabric and will be a Christmas present for a friend!

[@staceyleecreative]

That sounds like such a fun class, and what a thoughtful gift idea! 🎄 I love that you’re using hummingbird fabric for your sample-it’s going to make such a special present. Thanks for referencing the video; I’m glad it’ll be there to help everyone out later on! 😊 Happy teaching!

[@staceyleecreative]

You guys this is my new favourite tutorial 🙈 I always say that 🤣 but this one is a goodie!

[@asenavery4900]

I love it! Thank you Stacey!

[@LuvsSno]

I know on the outer piece and the batting you cut an inch longer and wider. But on the fold inside parts I understand an inch longer, but how do you determine the width of what will be the inside flap?

[@sunnijay89]

I love how mine turned out. Thank you so much for the tutorial. One of the best I've seen.

[@staceyleecreative]

Aww thanks so much 😍 I appreciate you watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment, it means a lot to me! 😊

[@breezy38canasta]

I think I will make one for my sisters as well as the granddaughters

[@staceyleecreative]

They will love them Wendy!

[@BobbieBTexas]

I just started embroidering and love how you explained how to do these covers. I’ll use my embroidery designs too. Thank you

[@staceyleecreative]

That sounds lovely Bobbie! Thanks so much for watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment 🤗

[@cartersanz8648]

I always love these for teacher gifts!

[@staceyleecreative]

Yes they are great gifts 🎁

[@jeaniemichaels8281]

I have just made a few covers but I had to finish with binding, which I did think was a bit surplus to requirements. I wish I'd found your tutorial sooner. I am now inspired to make a few more following your beautifully simple instructions. Thanks very much for sharing.

[@staceyleecreative]

I’m so glad the tutorial inspired you, Jeanie! 😊 It’s great to hear that you’re going to make more using my method. Thank you for watching, and happy sewing! ❤️✂️

[@janinebrendel-mk8mw]

Thank you. My grandkids are going to love this.

[@staceyleecreative]

Wonderful! Thanks for watching my video Janine 😊

[@jeanconnell2484]

Thank you Stacey I plan on making one.

[@staceyleecreative]

Awesome! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment 🤗

[@peterivkovich2314]

from Gerry- How fun is this! I can't wait to search for novelty fabric to match the "likes" of my family. Thanks and God bless.

[@staceyleecreative]

That’s a wonderful idea, Gerry! 😊 I can’t wait to see how your book covers turn out! ❤️

[@okay9665]

Thank you for such a straight forward and easy tutorial. I was able to follow along with ease! No mistakes! I’ll be posting my book cover on Pinterest and giving your video credit! So happy with the results!

[@staceyleecreative]

That’s awesome - thanks so much! ❤️

[@sharic.1886]

Truly looking forward to making a variety of sizes for the different types of books we read and making as gifts for my family members and friends who still love to read a good book. Thank you so much for the easy instructions 😊

[@staceyleecreative]

That sounds awesome Shari! Love it 😍

[@lineg4393]

I just discover you! I love your videos as you are not repetitive at all and the speed is perfect for me. Thank you.

[@staceyleecreative]

[@curlywurlykerri622]

[@anonymfirkasz]

Thank you for this tutorial, I have made two versions myself, with a little snap button added on a tiny handle thingy, and they are just amazingly easy to make:))

[@staceyleecreative]

That’s awesome! 🤩 Thank you for watching ❤️

[@kimdrumeler]

This is exactly what I was looking for

[@staceyleecreative]

Wonderful Kim! It's always a pleasure to hear that I've been able to provide what someone was looking for 😊

[@NELLTATE1]

I’m going to make this along with the book marker to it in a tote for Mother’s Day.

[@staceyleecreative]

That’s a lovely idea Inell! I love it 😍 Thanks so much for watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment 🙏

[@pwile2002]

What was the problem? Maybe we can make suggestions.

[@eileenalholinna5310]

I am following your tutorial trying to make a cover for a much smaller church hymn book!

[@staceyleecreative]

Awesome Dianne, you can do it. If the book is much smaller you might want to reduce fabric allowance if they are turning out to bulky 🤗

[@kimhernandez6303]

Very cute idea! Great gift for school kids or someone that loves to read!

[@staceyleecreative]

Yes I agree Kim 🤗

[@cindyharvey5469]

These would make great gifts for my group at work. We all have notebooks to log things into, and now they can be personalized!

[@staceyleecreative]

Yes that sounds like a great idea Cindy 🤗

[@ScarlettOli]

Just made this myself! It turned out so beautifully, thanks to your detailed instructions

[@staceyleecreative]

[@philvv71]

Late at being able to watch the video. First off, congrats Breanna on being the winner of the box! Second, these book covers could additional items to put in our donation quilt package. As I did last year, I have a bunch of stuff started to put in with my quilt(s).

[@staceyleecreative]

Sounds awesome Maria and yes I think these could be added because they ask for notebooks 🤗

[@Mel-zy1qu]

Thank you for this wonderful tutorial! I'll be making some for gifts.
