Evening at the Makery (Bath)

I attended a Patchwork class at the Makery. It was really fun and we made book sleeves as a way to practice all the techniques. Here's how you do it!

 Take 6 strips of fabric and sew together.

Sandwich wadding between them and another fabric.

Keep an extra two strips to one side.

 Pin all the layers together working from the middle.

Now the fun bit. Sew in any pattern you fancy to fix the three layers together.

Now you wrap the fabric around the book and pin the edges. Sew along as close to the book edge as possible and cut off the excess.

Now fold the extra fabric and sew along the edge.

The finished product !!! If you need a better explanation about how to make this just ask :)
