This is exactly the technique I needed to put together an altered book I was working on. It completely fell apart, because I was using a hundred-year-old book. So now I have thick pages that need to be bound together in a way that will allow them to lie flat. I just KNEW you would have the perfect tutorial for my needs Thank you so very, very much for putting all of these skills where I can find an learn them. You are so generous with your time and energy.

Thank you for this tutorial! I just used it to bind the instructions of a sewing pattern I'm sending out as part of a pattern swap. Mine doesn't look quite as even as yours yet, but it's definitely serviceable and much nicer than any store bought option. That the result lays open perfectly flat is a big plus for this use. I can definitely see myself applying this to more projects.

Some notes from someone who is a beginner book-binder: I used this to create a custom book for my mother (story/cookbook). Taping the edges the was definitely helpful for reinforcing, but making a video on how to do this so it could be even/not wrinkle would have been helpful because this was easily the ugliest part. I had to punch the holes page by page with this method though, which took longer but it was okay. You DO NOT need 6 needles. Would 6 needles have saved me time? Absolutely. However, because this is an open stitch I was able to use one needle and just move it to each thread each time I bound a page. Very doable and it still came out beautiful. I also did not estimate the amount of thread accurately, not sure why but I cut pieces wayyy too long, so just be mindful. Too much was definitely better than not having enough though.

It is an interesting and possible method for binding single sheets. Hower I guess that the main inconvenient is the thickness of the thread and of the duct tape used to reinforce the sheets, but I'm afraid there could be no solution unless one wants to bind single sheets using a perfect binding technique both traditional or milled paperback with chord reinforcement.

Thanks for your amazing tutorial! Despite the fact that it was my first experience with ever bookbinding, things went fairly well. I bound 40+ handpainted watercolour pages that had become farewell cards, into a book. I think that the thread I used must have been alot thinner than yours - your way of measuring how much thread was needed did not work for me and left me with about 3 times too much thread which was obviously a little difficult to manage as it would easily knot/tangle.. But that was my only hiccup.

Hi ! I'm trying to make a notebook which has both signatures and single sheets, and i plan to either use this technique but combined with coptic stitch (one thread, and returning the needle into a previous signature when i have a single sheet to bind), or to attach single sheets with a signature on top, like the cover of a regular coptic stitch notebook. What do you think, would it work ? The only issue is if i have several (more than 2) single sheets to bind in a row, haven't found an idea for that yet :c

What are the dangers for not stitching closer to the edges? Thank you for your video! I thought I would be stuck with the Japanese style binding.

I usually bind toward the outside edges of the spine because it stabilizes the book a bit more, makes it less "wiggly" if that makes sense. You can of course place the binding holes anywhere you prefer :)

Thanks! I would try the kind of thread I used in the video. I'm not sure what the exact weight it, but it's the same as craft or embroidery thread. You can also try waxed bookbinding thread (just search online to find it for sale). I definitely recommend using waxed or waxing it yourself. The threads are more likely to get tangled on this type of binding and it helps. Good luck on your project!
