But I need some advice on how to make it. I was think possibly rope or PVC pipe? But the I was thinking where can I get fabric wide/long enough? Idk I just need some creative ideas? It needs to be square and queen sized.

    PVC would work and be lightweight but not terribly strong (so don't hit it or fall on it, etc.).

    You will have to buy fabric in the lengths you want and stitch the pieces together to make it wide enough, if you want long side pieces to hide the bed.. If you use a print with no side that is "up" or a solid color, it is easier. You may want to paint the PVC pipe to make it more attractive. You can add lace, ribbons. whatever you want. just make the decorative items easily removable for laundering.
