    NEW on Cosmopolitan Cornbread! I have had a lot of people asking for a sewing tutorial on how to make a Custom Bible Cover. Well, here it is! Not only do I have a video of the entire process, I also wrote a text version, AND provided a free PDF of the entire thing, which you can download and print.

    You say you’re not a seamstress, but you are!! Look at what you sew!! And without a pattern! Many who claim to sew have to have a pattern to sew anything!! Beautiful cover!

      I’m one of those that have to have a pattern, I’m 100% left-brained😂! But Constance has come to the rescue of us left-brained people 🥰!

    Thanks so much for sharing this. I like the idea; it would make a great birthday or Christmas gift. My best friend loves sunflowers - I bet she would love this...come to think of it, her daughter raises sunflowers to sell. Maybe I should make her one before we go visit next week, since I missed her birthday last month. 🙂

    Looked pretty proficient to me❣️ My grandmother was a seamstress, having designed and sewn all the original costumes for Silver Dollar City many, many, many years ago. She could also recover sofas and chairs, made custom drapes for Weaver's furniture in Branson and Hollister, etc; all that to say it was great watching you sew without having to pin every seam down before ironing and sewing. Grandma would have been proud of you❣️❣️

    My Mom was a seamstress and yes, Sunday dresses were usually made overnight and I can still hear her peddling that Swinger sewing machine. Sewing was her passion and her embroidery work was incredibly beautiful. I tried to take an interest in seeing but as it went, Mom would end up finishing everything I started and it tore me up bc she was so talented and I had no interest. Years later I inherited a newer version of her many sewing machines and it sat unused for years. I really didn’t know what I was doing with a sewing machine I simply could not use, so sadly I gave it away and did have some regret. 😔 I love your covers and I think you can add some of those covers to your Etsy shop? I’m sure you’d sell out quick! Hope you’re feeling better and stronger each day! 🌻🌻🌻

    This is an excellent tutorial. I added a small loop to the front edge of the cover and a loop large enough to slip over my hand to the back cover. By sliding the large loop through the smaller one, I can easily carry the Bible without it popping open and dumping my notes.
