Your yard of fabric should measure 45" x 36". On both short sides of the fabric, fold the edge of the crockery over to the wrong side of the fabric. Iron and sew along both edges..
Fold the fabric so that the long, raw edges meet the right sides of the fabric. Using a 1/4" seam allowance, sew along the raw edge to create a long tube of fabric.
Turn the fabric to the right and press the seam flat.

Sew a seam 2-1/4” from the long edge. Use a piece of masking tape on your sewing machine to serve as a guide. Repeat on the other long edge..

Hang the hardware on a stud if possible. If not, use anchors to make sure the supports are secure. Hang brackets 46" apart and low enough for children to easily reach books.

Slide one pin into each housing and mount the pins to the bracket. Now you have a sturdy book sling that looks great from every angle.
