vinyl coverings


mah spanking new Bible cover. i needed something that could be easily cleaned so i opted for vinyl and to make it all the more awesome i used some scrapbooking papers for effect. i'm thinking a good way to finish this would be bias tape, and i still need to figure out how to close the flap. i'm thinking sticky velcro?

i love how spring and pink it all feels.

    very annoyingly. actually, i usually tape all the surrounding areas that i'll be sewing on, even my machine's foot to reduce the friction from the vinyl. and then i guide it through by hand.

    i'm thinking it might be easier to use my walking foot but i haven't tried that yet....

    Velcro can be noisy sometimes, would those magnetic closures work on this? Not sure how you'd attatch it permanently-you figure it out, you're the expert! LOL
