DUE TO ILL HEALTH I HAVE NOW RETIRED FROM SEWING BOOK AND BIBLE COVERS.
MANY THANKS TO ALL MY PAST CUSTOMERS AND TO FOLKSY.

I love the feel of these exquisite Japanese silks and love to make them up into book covers for everyone to enjoy.

The background is a very pale peach which has been over dyed in lovely vibrant shades of orange, blue, green, and russet. The silk is a medium weight crepe which is both soft and strong, which although vintage, is new and has never been used before.
The book cover fastens with an elastic loop and button and has a ribbon and bead bookmark.
Lined with a soft pale green cotton.
