Handmade Checkbook Covers!


An item's pattern usually takes me time to perfect. I go through about 3-4 'trial' pieces, getting the cuts, stitching and placements just right. By the end, I have my own pattern for how to make something attractive and durable!

Today, I worked for hours perfecting a nice Handmade Checkbook Cover!





I used thick Pellon interfacing throughout, 100% cotton fabric and thread, and a standard sew-on velcro. One thing I realized while creating these: They can also be used as covers for those purse-size calendars!
