Step 2Cut & cover the paperboard

Cut & cover the paperboard
Cut 2 pieces of paperboard to fit the inside front and back covers of the book. Then cut a strip of paperboard about 1/4 inch thinner than the spine of the book.

I'm not huge on measuring so I just laid out my ironed fabric with the paper board pieces on top. Lay one of the big pieces and the spine piece about a 1/8 inch apart. Treat this like on piece from here on out. Place the other one a few inches away. Coat the paperboard, and the fabric an inch or so around it, with spray glue. Remove the cards, spray the fabric beneath them and replace the cards, glue side down. Give the glue a few minutes to dry a bit, then cut the fabric, leaving about an inch around all the edges of the paperboard.

Trim the corners and fold the excess fabric over the edges of the paperboard except the outside edge of the spine piece. You'll want to leave the extra fabric on that edge to make a smooth seam on the finish product (Wait it out - you'll see!).
