Book sleeves are a great beginner sewing project as well as a great way to keep your books looking like new - take it from me - I seriously gave an entire presentation in middle school about how to properly care for your books. I was so excited thinking everyone would be appreciative, but it turns out no one was interested because it is a weird thing to care about....yep - I was SUPER popular in school....NOT.
ANYWAY have fun making your own - and check out Sara Dykman's new book: Bicycling With Butterflies!!
HAPPY SEWING!
Hello friends! I have decided to reopen my Etsy store - Scrappy Stitch! I sew and hand embroider - check out my shop! I also decided to document my journey along the way with this vlog. Feel free to follow along!

It's a good thing our popularity in high school doesn't dictate our happiness later in life. I like my nerdiness and crafty hobbies, and I think you're a pretty awesome person! On the topic of books: I'm not reading nearly as much as I'd want to, but currently enjoying Outlander and the Witcher after binging the series (and the games for the latter :) )

@ScrappyStitch 3 года назад

Aww thanks- ur awesome too!!!! I haven’t been reading nearly enough either- and I’ll have to check those shows out- I’ve been binging Schitts Creek (again- LOL) and watching the Mandalorian every now and then, but I find it a little boring honestly. HAPPY SEWING/READING/ BINGE-WATCHING! 🤣🥰

Thank you for this tutorial! I’m pretty much a novice on the sewing machine and I was able to make this with no problem!

@ScrappyStitch Год назад

YAY!! I’m soo glad to hear that!! 🥰 CONGRATS!! Thanks for watching!

@kathy2539 Год назад

I like to hand sew and embroider but this helps by giving a very clear look at the instructions. Hard to find hand sewing videos for these.

@ScrappyStitch Год назад

That’s amazing! Hand sewing is such an amazing talent that not a lot of ppl do anymore!

@wanderingwaiata7608 2 года назад

I loved this tutorial! My mum loves to read and is always coming home with a book so hopefully she’ll find this useful for her:)

@ScrappyStitch 2 года назад

Great!!! I’m so glad! Thanks for watching! 🥰

@shellh929 Год назад

Thank you! I made this but didn't want to go out and get the foam stuff so I like quilted fleece onto the fabric. It was chaotic and fun! Also I forgot to add both thicknesses into the width so it doesn't work for the random book I grabbed but luckily books are all different sizes. Thanks for the tutorial!

@ScrappyStitch Год назад

That sounds like fun! I bet it looks awesome- and yes every book is different so you will be able to use it for sure with one of the ones u have…if not it’s an excuse to get a NEW BOOK! 😍 HAPPY SEWING- and happy reading! 🥰

@TorisBookmarks Год назад

@AnayaSierra Год назад

This looks easy but I think it's because you actually know what you're doing... I'm a beginner but I'm going to attempt this. Thank you so much for the video!!

@ScrappyStitch Год назад

You can do it!!! 🥰 I know u can! Thanks for watching!

@@ScrappyStitch thank you :) where can I purchase the foam? i have looked at my local craft and fabric store with no luck!

@wismeiry31 3 года назад

Why are the best things always so underrated! 🥺

@JulesMadeThis24 5 месяцев назад

Why not test the scrap bits of fusible foam and scraps of fabric after cutting out the pieces you need to test what side the glue is on?

@mrsc7057 2 года назад

Nice instructions video ✔️

@ScrappyStitch 2 года назад

Thank you so much! 🥰

@cashsteff6850 2 года назад

Have you ever thought about an instructional video on how to make a book pillow? It is kind of like a bean bag pillow for your lap that you can rest your book/e-reader on.

@deanhenthorn1890 11 месяцев назад

Instead of using the mini-clips, try the flat metal chrome spring hair clips. They go around without interfering with the movement unlike the mini-clips do.

@reneen1980 Год назад

How thick is this foam material?

@selenakird4171 2 года назад

I really like the video! And your voice is very pleasant!!🥰 Only if you can…to give a link from where you bought the foam or perhaps the name of the store? 💖

@ScrappyStitch 11 месяцев назад

It was foam from Joann fabric! Thanks so much for the positive feedback- HAPPY SEWING! 🥰

@kandrasantos6200 10 месяцев назад

I can never get all my fabric under my foot presser for the top stitch or get a straight stitch on this part. Any advice? Thank you:)

@brittanylynady8332 Год назад

What tension would you recommend? Mind keeps getting tangled and loopy

@meaghanr7175 Год назад

What thickness fuseable foam did you use? Thanks!

@ScrappyStitch 3 года назад

What’s your favorite book? Let me know in the comments 🥰

@juliecorbeil9060 Год назад

How thick is your interfacing? Thank you

@avarner72 Год назад

What was the thickness of the fusible foam?

@brandileigh1334 Год назад

and where did you find this foam?

@ScrappyStitch 11 месяцев назад

It’s from Joanns

@lielamoon5820 Год назад

Do you think using cotton batting would make it have the ability to be machine washable?

@ScrappyStitch Год назад

Yup! You could wash it if you use cotton batting or fusible fleece! Have fun sewing!

@peasquiet4948 2 года назад

How much of a seam allowance did you use?

@ComeUndun. 2 года назад

"0 out of 10 for the weird blobs." BAHAHHA so strange!

@ScrappyStitch 2 года назад

🤣 I thought I ruined the fabric in the wash- you know how sometimes it bleeds? I was so upset and then I noticed it was part of the pattern- then I was like what the heck?? It’s sorta subtle but I could just see if I made something w it to sell ppl would not realize it was part of the pattern- it’s a weird design choice- LOL. But the actual butterflies on it are to die for gorgeous!!

@ebinantony3957 3 года назад

Can i know about the fusible foam you're Using?

@ScrappyStitch 3 года назад

Hi! It’s pellon flex foam 1 sided

@Lele-kb3hk Год назад

Never touched a sewing machine in my 22 years of live but I just noticed small damages on the corner of my book from stuffing it inside my backpack. As soon as I get home I’m forcing my mom to take her sewing machine out!

@ScrappyStitch Год назад

I can’t stand when my books get scuffed up 🤣 i love my book sleeve- it’s cute and gets the job done! 🥰 I hope you love yours too!
