Book binding

Looking at Kristin's beautiful work, reminds me of my book binding attempt.  Based on a Moleskin notebook following some good instructions.  Astronomical endpapers, attempt at sewing pages went well, but definately need a better technique.





 

Wasn't too bad but I definately need some practice.

 

 

Great tutorial on making case bound books, and the etsy booking binding artis have great tutorial list of box making and book binding resources and books



A nice tutorial from Etsy on introduction to bookbinding

Hand made books and printing

Kristin Crane makes beautiful books from old maps.  Saw her work in Providence, at MakeFaire RI.

She uses coptic binding and lots of lotka paper
