I'm not good at tutes, but we go. Hope this helps you!
I would suggest you do all your decorative stitches and embellishments BEFORE you sew the pockets and lining on. Have fun! cut (3) strips 2-1/2 X 17 and 1 tab 3-1/2 X 3. Fold tab in half longwise and stitch one short end and the long end, leaving one short end open and turn and press [ATTACH=CONFIG]90786[/ATTACH] with right side up, lay pocket pieces raw edges together and pin [ATTACH=CONFIG]90787[/ATTACH] insert composition book [ATTACH=CONFIG]90788[/ATTACH] 1 composition book this size, and cut (2) 9 X 10-1/4 for inside pockets and fold and press [ATTACH=CONFIG]90957[/ATTACH] close up of size I used [ATTACH=CONFIG]90958[/ATTACH] cut (1) from batting, outside cover fabric, and lining fabric 10-1/4 X 16 [ATTACH=CONFIG]90959[/ATTACH] place outside cover fabric on top of batting and draw a line where ever you want the strips to be. I drew mine in the center with the short ends on the sides [ATTACH=CONFIG]90960[/ATTACH] press 2 of the strips under on the long end 1/2 inch. Lay 1 strip on that center line right side UP and line up the unpressed side matching raw edges right sides together and stitch 1/4 inch. Do the same for the other one. **In this sample, I used the white for the center and pink on both sides. [ATTACH=CONFIG]90961[/ATTACH] next with right side up, measure 3/4 inch in from left side and sew a piece of velcro with the rough side on this end and a piece the same size of the soft side on the tab and with velcro UP, match raw edges and pin [ATTACH=CONFIG]90962[/ATTACH] now press open and topstitch where you pressed it under [ATTACH=CONFIG]91195[/ATTACH] turn the flaps to the lining side and this is what it will look like [ATTACH=CONFIG]91196[/ATTACH] this is the outside cover [ATTACH=CONFIG]91197[/ATTACH] finished! [ATTACH=CONFIG]91198[/ATTACH] lay your lining on top of the pocket pieces and stitch all around leaving a 3 inch gap for turning [ATTACH=CONFIG]91394[/ATTACH] |
