I’m working on making a book for an art journal round robin. I knew I wanted to do another exposed spine binding, but hadn’t decided on exactly which types of stitches I wanted to use. I hadn’t done a multi-stitch binding and thought I’d give it a try. I did a test run on something a little less ambitious than the journal I’m making, though. For this I cut down a old kids’ board book and used some sketch-weight paper. It’s not the most elegant binding job, but I think I’ve got the basics down well enough to go ahead with the main course.
