Hi all, I hope you're well!
Just announcing the next bookbinding stream tomorrow, Sunday, at 19.00 CEST (1 PM EST). If you're following along, check below what's needed in preparation for the stream! I'm really looking forward to it, and I hope you come by to say hello! :D
Just a short recap from the previous stream: We managed to sew the headbands and glue the coverboards to the book, so tomorrow we're going to do the embossing on the cover and glue the leather (or fabric, if you'd like!) to the spine. The only thing I've done in preparation for the stream is to glue some strong, very thin fabric to the spine of the book and let that dry completely.
Here's a list of what you'll need if you're following along:
- Dense cardstock for embossing
- Paper pattern for the embossing
- X-acto knife or box knife
- Cutting mat of some sort
- Bookbinding glue + brush
- Ruler + pencil
- Fabric / leather
- Bone folder
- Cord to wrap around the ridges on the spine
Hope to see you tomorrow! Cheers :D
Martina
