So I understand you right that i.e. you want all mp3-files in the folder "music 1" to have the file 1.jpg in the folder "covers" embedded?

This should work:  
Your Cover folder i.e. is d:\covers

Load all mp3-files from the mp3-folder including the subfolders to Mp3Tag.  
Mark all files and define an action.

Action-type: Import Cover from file  
Format string for image filename:  
d:\covers$trim($right(%\_directory%,2)).jpg
