The Perfect Scripture Case-- CLOSED

Hello, after years (FOUR YEARS!) of pattern developing I have finally completed The Perfect Scripture Case. 

The Perfect Scripture Case— this ideal scripture case sewn with love, is made to fit one regular size Bible and Book of Mormon or a regular sized scripture Quad.

I have had countless requests for a full sized Scripture case, after people 

see "My First Scripture Bag" pattern on Etsy.

Well, I finally got it to a level where it's ready to be tested.

This scripture case is fully lined with three different pockets for storage. 

Pattern includes: flex-foam for a fully padded case, two soft perfect-fit handles, two zippers, three fully lined pockets, and all finished seams!

If you are interested in being a pattern tester please fill out THIS FORM. 
Now CLOSED.  Thanks for all who showed interest!
All work should be done by April 5th.

Thanks!!

My First Scripture Bag Pattern-- looking for testers

For Sale Now: Only $5.  Click HERE.

After many requests I have decided to buckle down and take care with the scripture bags that I designed.  I first made them for Christmas two and a half years ago.  Then, this past Chriastmas I made one more for my daughter.  Each time I've made the bags I've thought, this would be a great pattern to share with others -- but I knew it would require a lot of work, to make sure it was done just right.

Last week I settled down, took my time, took lots of notes, and pictures and made a pattern that I'm really proud of.

But now I need you!

Before I can sell it, I want to have it tested.

I'm looking for four to five testers who would be willing to have the scripture bag completed and google form filled out by next Wednesday, August 28th. I'm hoping for a September 2nd release date, on my etsy site.

If you are interested please email me at allison allsop at gmail dot com -- with the subject line, "Pattern Tester".

Thanks so much!!

Another Scripture Bag

As Christmas was drawing closer this year my husband and I took an inventory of the gifts for the kids and decided that our two year old needed one more present. We talked about possible things she'd enjoy and concluded that she'd really like her own scripture bag.  During our family scripture reading time she was always stealing her brothers bags and putting her scriptures in them.

So a couple of weeks before Christmas I wiped her up her very own scripture bag.  When she opened it on Christmas day, she quickly got right up, put her scriptures in it and placed it carefully on the shelf. 

 She knew just what to do.

She loves to take out her scriptures.

Do some reading.

And put them back away, all by herself.  What a cute, big girl.

Homemade Gifts-- Scripture Case with Handle

Last week husband and I had a rare date night where we could drop the kids off at church and go Christmas shopping without them.  2 whole hours just us (and the baby-- we're not quite ready to let her go yet) to be without the boys.  We debated on just having a date or going out to see a movie.  But finally decided maybe we really ought to go out and get some Christmas shopping done.

We thought together and planned a fun list of items we wanted to get the boys.  Then my husband decided it would be a Great idea to get the boys their own scriptures with their names monogrammed on the front.

Among the toys we purchased we picked up two brand-new, monogrammed scriptures for each boy.

As we were walking out the store my husband suggested, "And why don't you make them their own scripture cases, too.  They'd love that."

I reminded him of the other 15  projects I wanted to get done before Christmas, but this one quickly jumped to the very top of my list.  I made them each in about 2 hours.

I will tell you, though I did not start this project completely from scratch.  I checked the good ol' internet for some inspiration and decided I liked this tutorial by I Am Momma - Hear Me Roar best. 

 But I altered it, of course, because I wanted to add a handle.

All set for Christmas.  I can't wait to see what the boys think of them!
