I would really like you to post the tutorial of the zippered book cover that you made. I would like to make one just like that for a quiet book for my granddaughter.
Thank you so much for your help/info on adding elastic to the waistband on my sons pants and the help/info for taking in the gap in the back of my pants, I’m going to have a busy weekend
