Workshops - Book Binding

This workshop was great fun to do, not to mention very handy to know.  I made a book last year for one of my projects and I had no idea how to bind it...now I can!


The workshop covered two ways to bind, firstly by stitching (which was surprisingly easy - especially since sewing is not one of my strengths...) and by using the binding machine.  It is basically gluing pages.


First of all, we put together 10 pages, which we subsequently folded.










Once all the pages were stitched together, we put the covers.










The cover will need to be trimmed to size.
























Nearly ready to go!
