I typically do checkbook covers out of calf skin or 4-5 oz leather. I will do the inside pockets from the same leather, line the inside, and sew the edges.

3/4 oz carving back, 1-1/2-2 oz goat liner. Very tough, luxurious feel, yet thin. Ends up with a checkbook that's thinner than the checks in a book, even with pockets for cards - and will last for years.
