A book cover is any protective covering used to bind together the pages of a book. Beyond the familiar distinction between hardcovers and paperbacks, there are further alternatives and additions, such as dust jackets, ring-binding, and older forms such as the nineteenth-century "paper-boards" and the traditional types of hand-binding. This article is concerned with modern mechanically produced covers.
History
Before the early nineteenth century, books were hand-bound, in the case of luxury medieval manuscripts using materials such as gold, silver and jewels. For hundreds of years, book bindings had functioned as a protective device for the expensively printed or hand-made pages, and as a decorative tribute to their cultural authority. In the 1820s great changes began to occur in how a book might be covered, with the gradual introduction of techniques for mechanical book-binding. Cloth, and then paper, became the staple materials used when books became so cheap—thanks to the introduction of steam-powered presses and mechanically produced paper—that to have them hand-bound became disproportionate to the cost of the book itself.

How to Sew a Simple Book Cover by Debbie Shore
This is a really simple book cover, fastening with ribbon to the side. Please look out for a future video with an added zipped pocket. I’ve kept this simple so that it is a beginner friendly project, and can easily be mass produced if you are making to sell, or what a great gift for any one you know! Child themed fabric for the kids, denim would work well, or you could use a patchworked fabric for the outer if you have a little more time!

My book measures 12” x 8.5” [30cm x 22cm]
So I’ve cut one outer and one lining piece to 1” [2.5cm] larger than my book size. Fuse fleece [H640] to the wrong side of the outer piece.
Also cut four 3” [8cm] wide strips to the length of the fabric. Mine are 3” x 9.5” [8cm x 24cm]
Two pieces of ribbon each measuring 12” [30cm]

thanks very much for watching, don't forget to subscribe, and give the video a thumbs up if you enjoyed!!
This is a really simple book cover, fastening with ribbon to the side. Please look out for a future video with an added zipped pocket. I’ve kept this simple so that it is a beginner friendly project, and can easily be mass produced if you are making to sell, or what a great gift for any one you know! Child themed fabric for the kids, denim would work well, or you could use a patchworked fabric for the outer if you have a little more time!
I’ve used Sailors Fish on Blue and Sailors Boats on Burnt Orange from debbieshoresewing.com

Materials:
My book measures 12” x 8.5” [30cm x 22cm]
So I’ve cut one outer and one lining piece to 1” [2.5cm] larger than my book size. Fuse fleece [H640] to the wrong side of the outer piece.
Also cut four 3” [8cm] wide strips to the length of the fabric. Mine are 3” x 9.5” [8cm x 24cm]
Two pieces of ribbon each measuring 12” [30cm]

A book cover is any protective covering used to bind together the pages of a book. Beyond the familiar distinction between hardcovers and paperbacks, there are further alternatives and additions, such as dust jackets, ring-binding, and older forms such as the nineteenth-century "paper-boards" and the traditional types of hand-binding. This article is concerned with modern mechanically produced covers.
History
Before the early nineteenth century, books were hand-bound, in the case of luxury medieval manuscripts using materials such as gold, silver and jewels. For hundreds of years, book bindings had functioned as a protective device for the expensively printed or hand-made pages, and as a decorative tribute to their cultural authority. In the 1820s great changes began to occur in how a book might be covered, with the gradual introduction of techniques for mechanical book-binding. Cloth, and then paper, became the staple materials used when books became so cheap—thanks to the introduction of steam-powered presses and mechanically produced paper—that to have them hand-bound became disproportionate to the cost of the book itself.
