Make a book cover with a hard or soft spine 

Thanks Shirley. :)

Hi Jerome, thanks so much for this! Your comment came in while I was away so I didn't see it until now, but I really appreciate it. Thank you!

Thanks for watching! The larger cover is just a regular type of bookbinding cloth; probably either Chelsea cloth or bookbinding buckram.

Thanks Aisha! The board I used is about 3mm thick.

Those are called Chicago Screws. I don’t know where you are so can’t really recommend anyone, but that kind of book is pretty easy to make; I bet you could figure it out yourself if you need to. Look up bookbinders in your area though.

Hi Michelle, thanks for your comment. If you have a regular book block that’s bound with glue or sewn to tapes (or both), you would glue endpapers to the inside covers and first/last page of the book, and these hold everything in place. You just need to make the spine wide enough to accommodate the depth of your book block.

Sorry, no.
