This is beautiful! Is this permanent vinyl you are using for the cover? So far I have tried HTV for my projects and had so many problems with ironing on the vinyl without damaging it and getting it to adhere to the book cloth. Would you recommend using your approach for book linen?
Yes, this is permanent vinyl. I've recently started using iron-on vinyl and encountered the same challenges you faced, even having to redo one cover from scratch. However, once you master the application process, I personally prefer the iron-on because it feels much more uniform to the touch compared to the permanent vinyl. Also, some small parts can sometimes peel off or attract dust, but I haven't encountered that issue with iron-on vinyl, at least based on my experience so far. Despite this, I suggest you to try it yourself; you might find that you prefer it and feel more satisfied with your results. I'm sorry for this extra long answer 😅I hope I was still helpful to you. Best of luck with your bookish projects! 🥰
@@BookishDIYChronicles Not at all! I appreciate your fast response and advice. It might also be a problem of the HTV quality. So far I have tried some one the cheaper side for practise. I will try some different brands. Maybe it will work out better. Wish you also all the best! ❤

Were do you find the cover borders designs or do you make it yourself.
I found them on pinterest :)
@@BookishDIYChronicles thanks.I just got into bookbinding Fanfictions and I have my old Circuit Joy from a few years ago.
@@BookishDIYChronicles Maybe you can do a tutorial of how you pick your covers designs and make it on the Joy soon.
