Make Your Own Moleskine-Like-Notebook

Don't be put off by the many steps involved. This particular notebook was developed over many years of feeble attempts to organize my thoughts, appointments and small sketches. I hope you enjoy making and using them as much as I have. Table of Contents: Page 1.

Book Tutorial pg 2 by *warrioronlydude on deviantART  Ladder Stitch – Embroidery and Arts Creatives. Ladder Stitch is a kind of embroidery stitch used on plain-and even weave fabrics.

Ladder Stitch – Embroidery and Arts Creatives

It has a ladder-like appearance, hence the name, and it is used as a border stitch or to fill a long, narrow shape of varying width. This stitch should always be worked on fabric stretched in an embroidery hoop or frame to prevent it form distorting the fabric. When the stitch is worked in a straight line, guidelines may need to be drawn on the fabric, unless the fabric threads can be counted, to keep the line straight. The rungs of the ladder can be placed close together to achive a solid effect or can be spaced apart to give the stitch a more lacy appearance.It is worked downwards along two parallel lines and consists of a sequence of crossing stitches, which form the rungs, and loops, which build up to create a plaited edge on each side of the row. A rounded thread, such as pearl or soft cotton, gives a raised appearance to the plaited edges. Chain or Coptic Stitch Bookbinding Tutorial.

The pages will open up completely flat and that’s a big reason why this method is so popular. Tutorial: Faça você mesmo sua encadernação - por Claudine Bartmeyer. English case binding revisited – elbel libro bookbinding. A style of hardback binding less ordinary The concept of case binding, meaning that the cover is made off the text-block and attached to it at a later stage, is known world wide, but the details of construction can vary from one country to another.

In most European countries the cover consists of a spine stiffener and two boards placed at least 5 mm away from the spine, resulting in a so-called French groove. In England a case binding is essentially the same thing as a traditional structure: the text-block is rounded and backed at a 90 degree angle and the cover consists of two boards and a spine stiffener, with small gaps in between as no French groove is required. Industrial bookbinding has accustomed us to French grooves, so much so that the absence of the latter makes a book look less ordinary. Ladder Stitch – Embroidery and Arts Creatives.
