Introduction: How to Sew a Little Book

About: Hey there! I'm an artist, animator and writer.


Hey there!


In this instructable, I will show how to make a small, felt book.

Supplies


You will need:


Felt - the color of your binding and pages

Thread - to match the felt

A needle

Scissors


Oh! And how about a little doll friend to read and carry the book?

Step 1: Cutting Out the Pieces


Cut out a cover, pages, and a little strip for binding.


NOTE:

The last picture is for what I did in step 4. It's very optional. You can cut them out later if you want.

Step 2: Sewing the Pages


First, round stitch down the side of all the pages together. Then, sew on the tan binding.

Step 3: Make Sure Everything Fits


For this step, I layered all my pieces together in the way that I wanted the book to fit, so I could see if any trimming needed to be done to the pages.

Step 4: (OPTIONAL) Sewing the Cover


So... I wanted the inside of the book to be a different color from the cover, so I round stitched two red pieces onto the grey outside.

Step 5: Insert the Pages


Sew in the pages by sewing the tan binding to the cover, and it's done!
