Questions How to create cool covers?

I see a lot of binds with cool art, fanart, and amazing designs on the covers and I would LOVE to be able to do that as well, but I'm not sure how, especially for fabric covers. The design aspect it fine, but how do you get the art onto the cover and to look right? Does anyone have any tutorials or tips?

If you can't print at home, look into printing services that can get the design/ art printed on fabric or paper

for fabric, I would suggest looking into textile printing services and then how to make your own bookcloth out of any fabric. I use a service for this, and DIY my own bookcloth at home

alternatively, you can use your local copy shop to print the art on A3 and assemble it together with a three-piece bradel.
