How do you sew a book cover??
I just got a sewing machine and decided that my first project should be sewing a case/cover for my Bible. I know that this can be done because the one I am using right now is one my sister made. I was wondering if you know of a pattern and the instructions of how to do this. Or if you know of a website that would be of any help. Or, if you know of any other cool and simple projects to do that would be fabulous. Thaks!
Here are some links for book cover patterns
http://sewing.about.com/library/weekly/aa030101a1.htm
http://sewing.about.com/library/weekly/aa081104b.htm
and this one says it's for a bible
http://sewing.about.com/b/a/250900.htm
Since you just got a machine, I would suggest looking over the about.com sewing section, they have patterns, beginning instructions and sewing machine tips as well as a newsletter.
You may also like this site, since you were asking for other projects as well
