These are a few fabric books I made. The largest was also the first--I cut a failed watercolor painting into strips, then wove those together with fabric and sewed it all on the machine. For the inside pages, I fused various bits and pieces of fabric together, and fastened it with a fimo clay button that I purchased a couple of years ago.
The two smallest books are made with spin art. I saved a few of the pieces my kids made when they were younger.

Marinas,
Very intresting fabric book cover! Did it take long to make? I'd love to learn how.
Best, Kyra

I just saw your comment--I cut the paper strips and taped them onto a piece of paper while I wove the fabric strips back and forth. Then I carefully lifted the whole thing off the paper (cut off the tape or peel it off) and sewed it on the machine to hold the pieces together. I made a piece big enough for both front and back covers--just fold it at the spine. The inside pages are also sewn in, but you could glue them along the spine.
