This is perfect for my Bible(s) when I'm wanting to take one with me somewhere but don't want to carry my big Bible case. I'm always worried the pages are gonna get dirty or wrinkled just sitting in my purse so this is a great solution! :)
Hello Hayley, what a great project … I think I’m going to do the same - complete a FQ project every month & I’ll have lots of lovely gifts for Christmas 🎄 🎉
Great tutorial, Hayley! I’m planning to make both of these when I get my January box. 😊 I’m hoping it’s made it out of your country and in to mine by now.
Each time I make one of these, they come out a lot smaller than I measured! I’m even including extra for seam allowance plus another inch as instructed. Any tips on how to stop this? I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong 😕
Your measurement is variable depending on the size of your book. She gave you a formula for an approximate size. No measurement numbers are set in stone. An easy make .

Amazing, so glad it’s helped!
Thank you. I’m teaching a ten year old to sew and I think she will love that idea! Diana

Yes!!! Just think come December you'll have 12 things ready to gift!
Loved this
Thank you
Great project & good idea to build up number of gifts for Christmas. Love the nails.❤

I’m reading the book that is on your page!!!
It Starts With Us? Great book
Great video. Already bought the fabric and looking forward to making these
thanks for the great video / one question... doesnt the book fit totally into the sleeve_😅
Haha... I just looked back and can see what you mean! I made this a couple of years ago and don't have it any more to check. I think it was a snug fit
Love your cardigan, is it bought or hand knitted ? Xx
Love this! What thickness of wadding did you use please?
Thank you, I'm afraid I'm not sure, but nothing too thick at all. Even just some scrap sweatshirt fabric would work
Use a low loft batting so it will not be super fluffy or an iron on batting which is a great way to go. It will give the book bag some structure.

They are definitely a snug fit, but if you are finding they are too small try adding an extra 1-2cm to your measurements for a little more ease
@@SewHayleyJane thank you! Will give this a go 😊
What is the material to make it thicker called
wadding!

Thank you, yes exactly that - depends on the size of the book.
