How to Sew a Simple Book Cover by Debbie Shore

This is a really simple book cover, fastening with ribbon to the side. Please look out for a future video with an added zipped pocket. I’ve kept this simple so that it is a beginner friendly project, and can easily be mass produced if you are making to sell, or what a great gift for any one you know! Child themed fabric for the kids, denim would work well, or you could use a patchworked fabric for the outer if you have a little more time!

I’ve used Sailors Fish on Blue and Sailors Boats on Burnt Orange from debbieshoresewing.com

Materials:
My book measures 12” x 8.5” [30cm x 22cm]
So I’ve cut one outer and one lining piece to 1” [2.5cm] larger than my book size. Fuse fleece [H640] to the wrong side of the outer piece.
Also cut four 3” [8cm] wide strips to the length of the fabric. Mine are 3” x 9.5” [8cm x 24cm]
Two pieces of ribbon each measuring 12” [30cm]
