How Do You Make A Fabric Book Cover?
Use this book cover to “dress up” a paperback novel or any other book. Choose fabrics that are mid- to heavyweight. Step 1 jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery(‘#jsArticleStep1 span.image a:first’).attr(‘href’,’http://i.ehow.com/images/ehows/steps/fabbook1_L.jpg’); }); Place your book on a flat surface so that the spine of the book faces to your left. Measure the width of your book (side-to-side) and multiply this number by three. Add the width of the spine to this number and then write down the total inches. Step 2 jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery(‘#jsArticleStep2 span.image a:first’).attr(‘href’,’http://i.ehow.com/images/ehows/steps/fabbook2_L.jpg’); }); Measure the length of your book (top-to-bottom), add 3/4 inch to this measurement and write this number down as well. Step 3 Place your fabric on a flat work surface, wrong side up. Use a yardstick or ruler, fabric marking pen and dressmaker shears to measure, mark and cut out a piece of fabric that is equal to the dime
