A little tip with the thread, if you use beeswax on your thread it will be easier to tie a knot and it will stay in place better when binding. Also adding the beeswax to the thread helps the thread last longer when bound in the book and the wear and tear when opening and closing. I have thought about doing something like this but the time it takes, you’re a champ for taking on something like this. Absolutely beautiful!

These little books are so cute! I'd be curious to know where you got your corner rounder. I've been making this style of book for years now and always have fun making them. One thing I've learned from other bookbinders is that it's best to fold all your papers together instead of folding them separately and then stacking them together. This method saves time and it also gives you a stronger, neater spine as all the folded pages sit perfectly flush with each other. Happy holidays to you!

Hi, I don't know if it's been said, but the booklets would be a little prettier/easier to make if you did the signatures with the black paper inside first, then fold the cover with the signature inside, that way your spine is a bit more rounded and easier on the eyes, and the pages won't stick out as much, but they look lovely nonetheless. I'm a novice bookbinder, and the pamphlet stitch books are very fun to make ^^ And if you use a regular bonefolder instead of a teflon one, you can burnish your paper accidentally, giving it a shine. If you don't want that, just put a piece of paper on top of the booklets ^^

These are too cute! It might be too late, but for future knot-tying, if you loop the thread the first time 2 or three times instead of one, it will hold while you make the 2nd knot. I hope that makes sense... Happy Holidays!

Hey Minnie! If you're going to use regular sewing thread (which are usually polyester not cotton) maybe try using "button" or "quilting" threads they're thicker and stronger. Also watch a couple of jewelry bead or pearl knotting videos for tricks on how to tie/make knots. Poor finger nail... 8(

While I think they are very cool I don't personally think they can be considered sketchbooks. This is simply because of the lack of pages (of course it's understandable) which would make it so you have to make some super advanced stuff on them, sketchbooks should be for sketches and not artworks. Otherwise really cool, don't know if I could convey my point
