Hello!
So, something completely different today. A while ago I made a cover for my own Bible, with fabric and pieces of paper that inspired me:
It only just fits and it makes my Bible very bulky, but I love it anyway :) The people at our Bible study group noticed the cover and I got to make two more!
This one is for the person who leads the smaller discussion groups. She always talks about her love for God, so when I found this stack of felt hearts I had lying around, I knew they were for her!
The second one was for a friend I met at the group. She asked me to make her a cover for their family Bible. What an honor! They really like purple, so I came up with this:
I just love this fabric. They’re actually left-overs from a skirt I made this Summer! I used some craft foam to sew the beads on and attached some stars, to represent the entire family; mom, dad and their two daughters.
I had a lot of fun making these covers! I love just diving into my fabric stash and sewing everything together that I like. And it’s very rewarding; the recipients both loved their Bible covers :)
xo,
wink
ps This is the skirt I made in the Summer:

Those bible covers look fantastic, they would look great on diaries and journals too :)
I love your skirt, it is very you :)

beautiful work, wink! I would like to make one for my Bible, too, but don’t know it would look half as lovely as yours. So beautiful.
