Bookbinding Instructions #3

June 12, 2012

Hi all! First, thanks for your appreciation. It’s been very rewarding to recieve you likes and your comments. And as I promised, here is another way for bookbinding without using glue or scissors, nor even a rule. The japanese sewing was little more complex to explain, so this is a long strip. I’ve been trying to create a GIF animation to show the sewing steps, but I’m tired, so I’ll post it here when I have it. Hope you like! (I still have another way to bind, but I have to challenge myself and it will come later)

    Thanks for doing it for ME! Perhaps next time you could recommend the specific type of needle that you used for bookbinding. I know certain needles just won’t work and they may hurt you very badly.

    Keep it up!

      yep, it’s true! I done mine with a normal-sewing needle and it IS harmful. At the workshop they gave me like a needle but with a wooden handling, they say you can buy them at an artist’s shop. Also I saw a girl on Youtube doing it with old Pilots, which are sharpie but you can handle them comfortably. Thanks a lot for your words, dear Janet! :D

        Thank you for the animation at the end. How did you do that animation!? That’s clever and very clear. I’ll make one book like this later. Very inspired by you. Well done!
