Checkbook Covers

My latest project has been checkbook covers. I was able to find a very good tutorial on how to make them here . I have made a few modifications to it, such as widening the sides because I can't seem to topstitch close enough to the edge, and I have added the monogramming. 

This is one that I made for my friend Afton: 


And this is the inside:

You did a beautiful job with mine. So far, four different historical novels have enjoyed the comfort of the book cover.

However, the checkbook cover ended up as a datebook cover because I use it more than the checkbook.

Seriously -

I never thought of using it as a datebook cover! It's so very versatile. :)

BTW, I loved yours the best. The material just rocks.
