What You Will Learn?
- Hi :) In this class, I'll show you how to make your own book with the alpha link, which is a long stitch binding variation..
- You don't need to have bookbinding experience, but you should be used to work with paper in general and know how to measure things out with a ruler. If you are familiar with that then you should be fine :) .
- I will guide you step-by-step through the process:.
- In the Project & Resources section, you will find a PDF with the materials you need. If you are interested in the specific sizes I used, there is also a PDF with a graphic chart that breaks them down. Additionally, you can have a look at my hole punching templates, which I am using to avoid mistakes. .
- If you don't know about paper grain you can check out the videos from my other class "Knowledge & Tools for bookbinding improvement"..
- Let's start!.
