It's so nice to read a good book! Reading is even more fun with a book holder. The reading cushion adapts to every surface, every Position and every angle of the book. Ideal for paperbacks, hardbacks, comic books, course books, cookbooks, craft books & tablet PC. Want to watch movies on your tablet? The book cushion is super practical here too. It can score points on the desk, in bed, on the sofa and even when traveling. Also ideal as a gift!
First draw two 45 x 45 cm squares with a 1 cm seam allowance on your chosen fabric. Then cut them out.
Place one fabric square in front of you with the right side facing up (printed fabric side) and place the second fabric square on top with the right side facing down. To ensure that nothing slips, secure everything with pins. Sew the fabric squares together on the right, top and left edges of the fabric.
However, allow for a turning opening in the middle of the left fabric edge: sew 15 cm starting from the top, leave a 15 cm turning opening and sew the remaining 15 cm from here. Extra tip: Round off the fabric corners of the square with scissors so that they can be shaped better later.
Fold the fabric pocket inside out and fold it so that the fabric seam on the wrong side lies directly on the seam on the right side. Press the seam allowance open and iron it smooth. Now sew the open edge together, but leave an opening for filling the cushion with wadding.
Use the turning opening to turn the sewn cushion cover right side out. Pay attention to how the cover lies in front of you, as it must lie in front of you after turning Position shape the corners well with a bamboo skewer.
Now sew the protruding edge that will later hold the books in place Position hold the books in place. The best way to do this is as follows:
The cushion cover lies in front of you with the turning opening on edge and the opening at the bottom of the sewing edge. Draw a horizontal line at 10 cm along this edge and another horizontal line at 2 - 3 cm from this line. Sew your fabric together along these lines.
Finally, fill the cushion with wadding through the openings. Close both openings by hand or close the edges with the sewing machine.
Dear sewer, as fabrics are seasonal goods and we always want to have trendy fabrics in stock for you, it can happen that the sewn fabric is no longer in our range.
