The inside consists of 2 flaps to insert the book cover. Here is a photo of what the finished cover looks like. To determine the measurements for the length (side to side), measure the length and add 6″.įor the regular quad, the book measures: 7 3/8″ x 13″ so the number we are after is 8 1/4″ x 19″įor the large quad, the book measures: 9 3/8″ x 15″ so the number we are after is 10 1/4″ x 21″ To determine the measurements for the width (top to bottom), add 1″ to the width measurement and then subtract 1/8″. Then do the same thing width wise and record that number. Hold the tape measure from cover to cover with the book closed as pictured below. The first step is to take the measurements of the book. The two examples shown are a set of regular “quad” scriptures and then the larger “quad” scriptures.

This pattern will walk you through the steps of determining the measurements for your bible or book and how to create a quilted cover. I can’t decide which little scene is my favorite! I love jam, bicycles, quilts, sewing machines, and all vintage goods. Absolutly everything Tasha designs is too cute for words. if they are preserved in good condition.My daughter and I recently received new scriptures and with new scriptures comes a need for new covers! I love these little quilted covers, I think of them as blankets for your bibles….heehee 🙂 The Riley Blake Designs fabric I am using is called Vintage Market Fabric by Tasha Noel. If you are like me, you have memories in your marked scriptures and keeping them is a priority even if they smell musty. Few people however would want to start over on marking and referencing their scriptures after they return from their mission. You can always toss your old scripture cover and get a new one for a fresh look. Hope this explanation helps you choose wisely your scriptures and a nice protective zipper cover. This lightened the load for us because we also carried a couple books of Mormon and handouts with our scriptures. Fore example I would carry one book and my companion would carry the other book (in our backpack) when we were out proselyting.
One other advantage for the zipper scripture cover is it will pack easier ( if you have a triple combination and the Bible separate). And save yourself some money for other things. This is a very likely scenario you can avoid and still have nice looking, very protected and useful scriptures. Imagine a spilled drink or food in your backpack with your nice leather covered scriptures. However if you have a vinyl-like cover that is always around the cover when the book is open it will protect the cover from becoming soiled when it is set on a dirty table, accidentally dropped, or when you get rained on the cover becomes a water-resistant cover. Why ? Because If you go to a warm humid area like I did (the Philipines Cebu mission) your nice leather book covers will likely become moldy and possibly stinky - holding on to the smell for decades later. Instead buy a leather zipper cover or better yet a simulated leather cover and put them over your scriptures for full-time protection - even when you are reading them. If you are going on a foreign or southern states mission consider NOT purchasing leather covered scriptures. If you don't know the reason why these type scripture book covers are so desirable over a tote-type cover let me explain. Triple combinations, Bible, Quad and foreign languages (Spanish triple fatter than English?) For compact, Standard and large scriptures. here they are - in all colors, quality fabrics, Leather, simulated leather, vinyl, etc. Im not sure why it was not so easily searchable from my previous searches but if you are looking for these - as several other people posted they were. Here is a website that I finally discovered. Unfortunately Missionaries are not currently being allowed to use digital scriptures. Well not counting the iphone and iPad versions that everyone uses now for convenience at church. It seem that only "tote bags" are popular for scriptures these days. even searched online and I could not find the type of covers I had on my scriptures when I went on my mission 30 years ago. I looked at all the LDS bookstores close to my home - Seagull and Deseret book stores. Okay this was something that I thought had become outdated. Zipper scripture covers that snugly fit around the books so you don't have to remove them when you want to read your scriptures. I found the covers that I thought were no-longer made for my son who wanted them for his mission scriptures.
