The pictures below are books my girls and I made yesterday.....we are just having so much fun with it.
we ran out of glue...so some are undone....its addicting actually.
It is SUPER simple
get cardboard
glue (spray glue is best)
fabric or water color painting.
Take your paper and fold to the desired size. Sew up the center of the fold with simple needle and thread.
have the cardboard almost match the paper. cover the cardboard with material and leave about 1 in allowance on all sides so that you can fold and glue onto the cardboard.
All done!

I would think that the cardboard could get warped with all the glue. When I've done this we've set up something akin to a flower press to squeeze the books flat while they dried. I'm curious about what kind of glue you used since you didn't seem to have to worry about this?
