DIY Book Sling

I received a great little Christmas present from my brother and his girlfriend last year, the 2011 Sewing Calendar, which is full of over 100 easy sewing projects, 99 of which will make it to my to-do list and never get done!

Many of the projects were gathered from crafty DIY blogs and websites and I thought it might be fun to feature some here every now and then.

The first one that caught my eye is from Penny Carnival.  Click HERE for the full tutorial on her blog.  Below are the detailed instructions for this cute Book Sling from the calendar:

What a great project for a child’s room or nursery.  Since children’s books come in all shapes and sizes, this is a great organizational solution.  It would even look nice in a den, family room, or study with the appropriate fabric choice.  You can even make it “no-sew” by using an iron-on adhesive.  Many versions of this project can be found on the web just by searching for “Book Sling.” 

Have you made something like this lately?
