Pattern and Directions to Sew a Durable Stretchy Book Cover!

Book covers are required on most school books. Paper is great and economical but it usually ends up torn and falling off the book. These book covers require a stretch stitch and are relatively simple to make. A great use for those Lycra scrapes.

Do you have a friend that always has a book to read? A book cover will make a great gift for your reading friends.

Materials needed:

• 2 way stretch fabric
• Thread
• Sewing machine with a stretch stitch or a serger.

Note: Two way stretch fabric must stretch on the lengthwise and crosswise grain. Bathing suit Lycra works well and may be found on clearance at the end of the summer just in time for the start of school. Your seams MUST be sewn with a stretch stitch.
