Book Binding

This week I took part in a book binding workshop. We were taught how to make varying styles of books and shown how to sew pages together. 

Below are examples of book spines which could have pages attached in each fold.

I added covers to some of the designs using 1mm board covered in paper. 

Above is a cleverly designed book which involves the concertina effect used in making a book spine however pieces of paper are alternately attached to each side of the folded paper to create this amazing effect when the book is opened.
