My project

1. Dig from store room a towel no longer in use, but has the thickness of a sponge (use towel cuz couldnt find sponge in the house ^^) measure and cut it according to the perimeter of the bible.
2. Also dig out unused cardboard from bookshelf, cut it according to the perimenter of the bible as well. as shown in the picture above.

3. Dig out super glu for craft (found it in the pile of stationaries given by Priscilla ^^).. hehe, use it to permanently stick the cardboard onto both ends of the towel. As shown in the picture.


4. Found this old shirt of mine that was bought 4 years ago in the cupboard when i went back Msia 2.5weeks ago, decided to use it as bible cover. Well, this shirt was short and i no longer wear it, but stil kept it as it was my favourite shirt. hihi..

5. Again measure and cut according to bible parameter, but this time leave at least 6cm excess on all sides of the perimeter to make allowance for the zipper of the bible.

View of the towel and cardboard when glued together.
See if it fits the bible nicely..

Like this..

Okie, now it's the harder part of sewing.. the sides and the zipper... Hmm, where can i get a purple zipper over here in perth at reasonable price...??????
and what decoration should i sew over the front cloth cover of the bible..???

stay tuned, to be continued.......
