Book Cover FOR ME!!

Today I posted on my Facebook page that I wasn't going to sew. Well, I did. I spent a great deal of my morning working on this project! This is the first time that I have used selvedges and I turned it into my very own Book Cover! I have made soooo many for other people!!

This is the front cover.

I made the inside sleeve with the selvedges too.

The back cover as well. Do the selvedges used count if they don't have any printing on them on cute little dots??

I think my trademark is that I always use RED ribbon for my bookmarks.

This is just a shot of the inside of the sleeve. The inside of the book cover is all purple fabric. You can't see it as I have my book in there. This could be reversible. Maybe I will take pictures tomorrow of it and add it on. Would you like to see it? The only downfall there would be that my label in only printed on one side. Hmm...easily fixed on the next printing!

Thanks for stopping by. I have posted three separate entries tonight. I have one more but will do that tomorrow or in the morning.

Karmah's Going Away Present - the Book Cover!

Here is Karmah's book cover I made for her.  I CAN NOT BELIEVE that I forgot to take pictures!!!  I labeled it and wrote something inside with pink fabric.  Perhaps if you click on the photo you can see I quilted it.  I also forgot to get pictures of Ali's teacher's one which I cross hatched and embroidered!  I will ask her to send me some photos for my files and this blog. 

Book Cover

Here is the book cover that I intended for my daughter's friend whom is leaving bright and early tomorrow morning (boo-hoo!).  It was too plain so I made another one and quilted it and this one has been given to my daughter.  Where is that picture?  We are ALL Twilight fans and when I saw this monkey print I thought of her and bought enough to make pj's for my girl and they are my little 'spider monkeys!"
This is the inside flap and yes, it is one of the series of Twilight books.  I think New Moon. Edit:  I often proofread my posts and saw indeed that it is New Moon.  Gosh!
I did not have any ribbon to use so I made a ribbon out of leftover fabric and really liked the idea for a built in bookmark that matches.  I have since made them longer and wider.  Recognize this polka dot fabric?  It is from my French Braid (I know!)
