ahhhh, finished
Ready to ship. The book is 6 ½" x 8" and covered with green silk cloth.
Handsewn endbands.
The other four lined-paper text blocks are waiting for endbands and covers. One or more can be customized for you if you
contact me before February 15. After that date I will bind the remaining text blocks and put them up for sale.
skipping ahead a bit
One of my favorite parts of making a flatback book such as this journal is giving it a nip in the press, where the brass-edged boards give the hinges a nice, crisp finish.
a new year, a new leaf, a new blog
Inspired by the many wonderful craft and food blogs I've been exploring lately I've decided to launch a blog for my bindery work.
I'm working on a book to ship on Monday, and four siblings. They will be journals made with lined paper. I've received inquiries for lined paper in the past so I went ahead and bought enough paper to make an edition of five.
