I have had this small Bible for probably about 12 year or so and the cover was in bad shape. I have been thinking for a while about what I could do and decided yesterday to make just a simple fabric slip cover. So I headed to my fabric stash and came across this pretty colorful fabric, which is heavy duty and will be durable.
"But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus." II Timothy 3:14&15 KJV

Handmade Bible Cover.....
I have had this small Bible for probably about 12 year or so and the cover was in bad shape. I have been thinking for a while about what I could do and decided yesterday to make just a simple fabric slip cover. So I headed to my fabric stash and came across this pretty colorful fabric, which is heavy duty and will be durable.
I measured from the inside cover around the front, binding, back and inside back cover. I then measured the width and added 1 1/2" to the measurement to the length and width, so the seams would be 3/4". I then cut out two pieces of fabric and sewed up this nice little cover.
It sewed up easily and turned out great. I love it!
