Dahlia Lama in Seafoam

Newly completed Bible/Journal Cover in Patty Young's fabric: Dahlia Lama in Seafoam.

The size for this custom order is exactly the same as my large Life Application Study Bible, & that bible is used as the "model" here :)

If I worked non-stop on a bible cover this size, it'll take me:
- 10 mins to figure out the measurement for the pattern to be used
- 1 hour to cut all the fabric + padding (part 1)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 10 mins ironing the fabric
- 10 mins to pin them all together
- 1.5 hour to sew them together
- 30 mins to complete the trimming + finishing touches (part 2)

All in, it'll take 3.5 hour to work on this "non-stop".

Unfortunately, I dont usually have 3.5 un-interrupted hour during a day. So, it's usually broken down to:
- part 1, & part 2

Usually, spanning over 2 or 3 days. But, with my present "helper-less" situation, this took me close to a week to complete ^^

Anyways... I'm just glad it's completed at last!
